How muscle holds a structure?
We've already established that muscle acts like a rope. If you look close at rope, you will see fibers, they also have direction. A muscle too has both of these attributes. Muscle has fibers and direction. Now, here is a structure. And it could be your scapula neck shoulder, or any structure in your body.
Now, if we want to move this table across the room that way, I would not need to use all six ropes, I could pull on this rope.
So the middle rope would become tight to pull the desk. But if I wanted to steady the desk during the move, I would engage more ropes or tighten them. Say maybe the same middle rope again and also the two outer ropes on the opposite side.
Your muscles do the same thing. The difference is that your muscle won't relax ever unless you train it do so. Your daily activities have trained certain muscles to tighten and relax. But problem areas, such as impact injuries, adaptations or low slow adaptations, certain muscle fibers are trained to stay contracted or tight. All you have to do is to retrain the area to have space or slack which was originally there before your problem occurred.
A muscle is trained for any activity the same way, by memory, muscle memory. The longer the memory has stayed in their body, the more memory it has.
