A member asked:
How does one develop muscle wall rigidity?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
This is abnormal: Rigidity is an involuntary response to an injury or other abnormal situation. Muscle tone or firmness is a different situation. You can develop muscle tone and firmness by working muscles as with exercise.
