Muscles (at least in humans) aren't hydraulic, they're more like electrochemical amplifiers coupled to fibers that pull on each other when given an electrochemical potential change. The interesting part is that the fibers are either contracting or not and how many are contracting is how the force can be modulated, in other words in a way it's digital!

Yyyyeah, he wasn’t talking about muscles. ;)
