Maya Muscle not deforming mesh
Hello all! My name is Eric and this is my first post here. I am a student at the Art Institute and I am attempting to build a maya muscle rig for an independent study. Since no one at the school really has any experience with Maya muscle, I am following this tutorial from digital tutors found here for those of you with an account:

The issue I am having is that, after I connect the muscle to the mesh and even after I FULLY WEIGHT the mesh to the deforming muscle, the mesh still does not deform. I really have no idea what is happening. I am getting no jiggle, no responsiveness whatsoever from the mesh, even thought the muscle it is supposedly weighted to is operating as it should, jiggle and all. If anyone can offer any help I would be most grateful. Thank you!
