When you first got into fitness, everything you read and everyone you spoke to said consistency is king.

The more you put into your workout routine, the more you get out of it. There are no shortcuts or free lunches. You learn, you hustle, and hustle, and hustle, until…finally…you get the body you want.

Don’t have time? You just don’t want it enough.

Don’t feel like going to the gym? Same thing--suck it up.

Don’t want to lift heavy? Have fun staying small.

And, no stranger to hard work, you meet the challenge every step of the way. You give 110% to your training. Every day…week…month…and year.

So far, things have gone as you envisioned. You’re bigger, leaner, and stronger than you’ve been in a while, and you don’t want the party to end.

But, what if it does have to end, at least for a little while?

What happens if you have to take a few days, a week, or even a month away from the gym?

You’ve always heard that, “If you don’t use it, you lose it,” and the second you stop lifting weights, your muscles enter a slow, steady state of decay. The longer you spend out of the gym, the smaller, weaker, and softer you’ll be at the end of your hiatus.

How true is that idea, though?

After months or years of lifting weights, do your muscles really shrink that quickly?

Well, the long story short is that yes, if you take a long enough break from lifting weights, you will lose muscle and strength. The good news, though, is that it takes much longer than most people realize, and you’ll rebuild muscle much faster than it took to gain it in the first place.

In this podcast, you’ll learn how long it really takes to lose muscle and strength when you stop lifting weights, what you can do to maintain your progress when you take time off, and what to expect when you get back in the swing of things.

Let’s jump right in.
