You work hard to build muscle but what happens when you can't properly stimulate it? We had A LOT of users write in over these past couple weeks in a complete panic about losing their "gains" as our gyms have now been closed for almost two months. Taking this into account, we figured what better time than to talk about how long it actually takes to lose muscle, how quickly it comes back and more in our latest podcast episode.
