Why does muscle mass disappear if you do nothing?

A year ago I went to the gym for 3 months, only once a week.

I also built up muscle but then I stopped for a year and now the progress is gone again.

The stimulus level rule is the answer to this :

sport-medical (training teaching) is the quantification and dosage of the movement stimuli and the sporting load decisive by …

stimulus and irritability – they lead to muscle atrophie through too low dosed or too rare and unsystematic training, so no performance gain occurs

● Maintenance incentive – serves to maintain a given state of health and performance

● Training stimulus – exceeds the organic stimulus threshold and leads to biological adaptation

Overstimulation (the excessive training stimulus) makes an adaptive reaction not possible, instead, non-specific local and/or general faults, overload reactions and power stagnation occur.

Conclusion : The form of adequate stress is therefore crucial!!!

That’s it.

“Use it or loose it” – the spell is true.

If you give the body the kick to build muscles so that it can make its task easier, then it rebuilds proteins into muscles.

If you leave this – and you have experienced it, then he will build the muscles off because he would otherwise have to carry them around, feed them, etc – all unnecessary if it is not needed.

All normal – the reason: The body never voluntarily builds muscles, lacks the need, so they are just an unnecessary burden for him. The body must therefore be forced to build muscle by work or sports.

For the same reason, the body also does not hold muscles. What’s trained goes away without irritation. After all, the muscles have some kind of memory and then build up faster. Also known as cell memory.

If a young, trained man is tied to the bed for 8 weeks, he must first be supported if he wants to go.
