@strawberrie you don't have to be an expert to see it's like has these weird jagged tears and is yellow and green like you know, not normal. I mean unless yours looks like that too so you thought it's normal...
@terry folds I never said it was an infection. so, really you wrote to me and said his toenails may or may not smell bad when I never said they did. I in fact said they “might” smell. So what’s your point? Do you want to debate on wether his toenails might or might not smell? Or are you just defending the man’s toes?
I tore a muscle and didn’t go back to the gym for almost 2 years. I was 165lbs 4 months ago and now im pushing 190 on a good day. Muscle memory is amazing
The thing about training is- your muscles grow really fast, the problem lies with your joints, bones and ligaments that have to get used to the sport. They take longer to get used to it but they also stay that way longer, meaning all he has to to is get back the muscle, not also get everything else back into shape
wtf, there’s only a second or two where it shows his feet and even then you can’t really see anything. why you looking there anyways???? It’s blocked mostly by text
@George Sebastian both matters, if you’re on steroids and get off of it and don’t work out, you’re gonna lose muscle at a faster rate than if you’re natty. This has been scientifically proven again and again
@Bruhl hmm, i guess that was a comprehension mistake on my part, so my bad. but his point was, although you would still lose muscle from not working out as a natural, it’s just much faster as a non natty
@yes ok what does this have to do with me. All I said is that being natural doesn’t stop you from losing your muscle mass lol. I have lost my muscle quickly multiple times due to surgeries and had to start over again
@msschubi You have things called motor neurons. Your nervous system remembers how much muscle you had and how to use it. All it takes is putting the mass back on, which your body is fast at because your metabolism, gut, enzymes, etc. are all used to building and maintaining lots of muscle.
These comments give me hope! Torn ACL,MCL and medial cartilage after a knee dislocation and I've lost so much muscle and gained a gut in just 4 months... Can't wait to get fit and strong again after recovery post op 💪🏻
My dad tore his bicep at work (he’s an electrician) a few months ago and he couldn’t do anything for a few months.. when he got back to work he could hardly pick up the things he used to be able to with ease
Happens really easily when you push your body past its genetic disposition. Some people just pack and keep muscle really well and some have to work a bit harder to keep ot up
@AntonioDucc genetics dont affect whether you can get fit or not. You dont have to be the buffest dude on earth to be fit, nor you have to be slimmest. I believe you can do whatever set your mind to man, even if you dont have great genetics
I know a guy who did something like this. While he was recovering he would work his other side while doing the motion on his injured side. He read somewhere that it helped retain strength and improve recovery speed. He says that it worked for him
This is what sucks the most about working out. One thing goes wrong and there goes all your hard work. It happened to me, I was in good shape, then I got really sick and couldn't work out for like a month, and just in that month I lost all my muscle definition.
my dad was an athlete when he was younger. like competing in sport events and winning medals and all that stuff. he hasnt worked out since some years now, maybe going to the gym once half a year and has lost quite a lot of muscle mass. but he can still easily do idk like 20 push ups just randomly, even when a little drunk like he does it everyday. muscle memory is an interesting thing truly. so im pretty sure this guy will get back in shape.
I get that alot of people are joking but a good 90% of these commenters dont know that right handed people will always have a bigger right hand and arm 😂
It happened to me when I broke my collarbone, it's horrible but after 18 months I'm bigger and stronger than ever. In case anyone is going through the same shit, you will come out the other side better!
similar thing happened to me, in HS my sophomore year i had a complete swimmer body then broke my left arm after 8 months of not being able to work out i went to having a meh body, still struggling to get back into habit of working out
You can not workout for 3 weeks and still be the same size. You don't start losing muscle for awhile. So don't think if you don't work out for a week you are losing gains. You are not.
This is exaggerated for views I didn't lose all my muscle after getting lazy with it during covid and being furloughed and taking a year and a half off, so some guy ain't gunna lose 100% in 3 and a half months, unless he was in a massive caloric defecit, he would lose some yeah and mainly alot of strength but not even close to 100%unless he was starving himself
I just had surgery on a torn labrum and torn bicep tendon requiring bicep tenodesis and posterior labrum repair. I’m in the army and full recovery time is 9-12 months for me to get back to full duty. It sucks because I can tell the difference in arms a lot to the point I don’t want to work out. I still can lift my arm past breast level. It’s awful. Seeing this is motivational
I was in the peak shape of my life when I left the USMC. Less than a month later I was hit by a truck going 45mph while I was on foot. The only reason I survived is because the truck had enough clearance to go over my body without dragging me. I spent three months in the hospital and had three years of surgeries to finally repair my shattered pelvis properly. That meant I spent most of those three years in a bed. I'm kind of a shell of my former self and yet I'm as close to 100% as I'll ever be. I used to love working out but all this shit made me lose that drive. I hope I can find it again
This made me feel so good. Im 6 foot 2 and i weight about 145 to 150. I just started working out to gain muscle. I think that maybe Im doing that bad. I hope bro gets his muscle back!
I did the exact same thing. I don’t understand why people can’t still work out from this or a lot of injuries. I still ran. Did abs. Legs etc. lost muscle in my left arm obviously but didn’t lose anything else
@Quantum Potential if I’m not mistaken that’s called myonuclei cells, these are what u cultivate when u workout and are what will get u back all your muscles super fast if you lose any
@Miss K oh Missy ... you just need to feed your muscle flux capacitor and your muscles will immediately lift up 88 pounds to return to the past. It's right there in the glove box of the DeLorean, page 33 of the owners manual of the muscle time machine.
Muscle memory is about movements, not building muscle. Your muscles "remember" how to do exercises and skills. They don't remember how to grow bigger. That just comes with the work.
Been lifting for 10 years now I'm currently 1 month in recovering from a patellar tendon rupture. My left leg has shrunk to probably the same size as it was in my first year of lifting. Looks so god damn weird every time I look at it
I broke my ankle at work and had to have ligament surgery on it in 2021. My poor left Calf muscle looked like a lil chicken leg. The right leg lost some muscle too just from not being able to walk for a while. My left Calf is still a tiny bit smaller than my right but I've gained a lot more muscle back
@Rayan i fcked up my triceps while working out and I ended up pausing for 2 years altogether… It took me like 3-4 months at max to get back to peak but I ate and trained like a psychopath :) But no worries muscle memory is a real thing and way stronger than some people might think ^^
I tore my muscle in half you can actually see two parts of it , so I strapped it. And took the pain , man I took a year to heal but it did and I got a lot of strength back. By doing 150 push up every day.
I went thru a similar experience fighting cancer and it sucks losing all your muscle and having to gain it back, but I will say that the body remembers the strength that it’s had before and it will get back to it quicker than the first time. So if for whatever reason you’re not able to train, or youre sick, or maybe you’ve lost motivation for a long period and lost it all, don’t be discouraged because your body remembers and it wants to be fit again, AKA muscle memory. And this gives you an opportunity to start from scratch, so not only do you have muscle memory on your side, you’re now equipped with all the knowledge you’ve gained from the first time you built your physique. So when you build your physique the second time, you now know what works for you, what you like, what your strengths and weaknesses were the first time, etc. I’ve lost my physique completely, but I gained it back and looked way better than before.
Well that's two guys called Timothy who've had their muscles messed up by cancer, it really is horrible, it just becomes hard to eat 3 meals a day and working out is basically impossible, even when it was stage 1, it was damn near impossible, even a year after recovery I still notice the remnants of what it left me with and working outs nowhere easy as it was and that's insane to say for an 18 year old. But ultimately I assume we both came back stronger and pushed through anyway. Salute to you brother
I severed a tendon in my finger which ment that I wasn’t able to work out for 12 weeks and from personal experience I found that it took me about 4 weeks to get back to where I was so he should be back to where he was in around 33 days. 50 at most
Recomp will treat him nicely the calorie surplus and continued auxiliary work will be critical for coming back. He'll bounce back in half that time I promise.
Tearing muscles lead to increased estrogen, too - I believe this happens, in an attempt to conserve what mass you do have... But, you then have to work against that fresh out of recovery
I worked out for 15 years straight too, then the shit storm of 2020 happened lost quite a bit of muscle. And I've really been trying to get back into it.
I always feel guilty about this kinda stuff. I'm fortunate enough that I can retain muscle VERY easily without working out. I measured my biceps periodically over a year and they were always at 15 inches. I can't imagine the feeling of loss this gives people. It'll always come back though. Stay strong kings.
@Steve Scruby recovering from a torn lcl here, thanks for giving me hope. It happened in October and I’ve been sad looking at my skinny little chicken legs wishing I had my beefy sprinter legs back… at least my arms and shoulders are as buff as ever 😅
@gully foyle The real answer is that it varies by individual and genetics. A lot of factors can affect the “return to original physique” timeframe. These can include age, prior training history, gender, severity of injury and quality of personal care during the period of physical inactivity (for example - did this person still maintain good sleep and nutritional habits while injured?) In terms of answering your question - how long can a person stay inactive / injured before losing the muscle memory (the ability to quickly recover their physique)? That also depends largely on the same factors I listed above. I will share an anecdote about my own history though. I once had a fairly acute injury in my left shoulder - a Grade 2 separation of the acromioclavicular joint. I couldn’t do any pressing (bench, overhead or otherwise) for over a year. However, once I finished my rehab and healed up, I was hitting new PRs in both my bench press and overhead press within six months, and feeling stronger than ever. More weight, more reps, better form, than ever. So, in my case, inactivity for 13 or so months didn’t cause me to lose anything for long. I’ve worked with lifters who have been injured for two years and seen them make explosive progress as well. If you are injured, focus 100% on getting better as soon as possible. Keep your sleep and diet in good order, do your rehab work intelligently, and do whatever activity you can safely do consistently - even if it’s just light cardio or walking. You WILL recover, and you will not be starting from square one if you already have a prior training history. I know it is disheartening to feel like you’ve lost progress, but don’t give up. You will recover everything you had and more. Just get better and get back to training. You got this.
Tore my pec last year and implement the exact same game plan (ie caloric surplus and leg days). I’d say the same thing happened in the first 100 days, and by 200 days I’d regained most of what I had lost.
I was laying down for 7 days, while being sick, last week. Could not eat anything.. and i can see now that I lost some muscles and weight in that period. And imagine how this dude felt after 100 days. But fak it, lets do it all again!
Back when I had asl reconstruction surgery, I lost so much muscle in my leg that there was a visible difference between them. I was only on crutches for just over a week, you lose that shit fast man..
@merisav4 muscle memory will allow for all that muscle to be regained in just a few months compared to the several years it took to build it the first time it’s just like building something, building it the first time won’t be easy but building it afterwards will be
Muscles do regrow very quickly after losing it, and I think a lot of us learned that over covid. That being said, say safe and don't get discouraged if you get an injury like this. You will bounce back 👍
The interesting thing about the human body is that even when one side of the body is injured, you can still train the other side of the body and the injured side will still have progress or will maintain its size or strength. That's why it's never recommended to stop training a muscle group all together but to train the uninjured side still; it will prevent atrophy and loss of strength on the injured side. Edit: I mentioned here the word "progress" when, in reality, I shouldn't have. I should have said that training an uninjured limb will help in preventing the injured limb to lose muscle or strength. But this depends on the length of time the limb is not training of course, the type of injury, and the person. My apologies for confusing anyone!
@Conner Young I guess I had poor choice of words with that part. You're right about the progress and I am not sure why I said that. I guess i was just thinking fast. I'm sorry that I made it confusing for everyone. But it is true that when you train an uninjured limb, the injured limb won't lose as much muscle or strength if you were to just stop training a muscle group completely. There are a lot of factors to consider, as to how long the limb isn't being trained, the type of training, the intensity, and so on. There are recent study articles that you can view that talks more in depth about this topic. At the end of the day, it's still better to train one side of the body if you can't use the other side for a certain period of time than to completely stop training. 😄
@@juaniusm That isn't what you said though. You said you would even see progress with the injured side, and you won't. Nor will you prevent atrophy by doing so.
with the right technique and digital patterns ensures every holder possibility to make more, and as digital holders we must agree to follow professional coordinates cus nothing beats experience.
My dad was involved in a horrific accident was in and out of hospitals for over a year, survived. Weighed around 200 lbs at the time of the accident and around 110 lbs when he was able to walk again. It took him around 7 months to get back to around the same shape. Muscle memory is very real.
Fun fact (studying exercise in college so not an expert but am required to read scholarship) your body likes homeostasis so much, that if you exercise your non injured side, your injured side will catch back up and/or make new progress to match the un injured side
@Trey Savage I mean it’s anecdotal but also first hand, I hurt my wriest real bad and couldn’t use the arm at all for months however I refused to give up on working out so did single arm dumbbell bench, dumbbell curls, single arm Cuban press, one armed pushups, everything I could think of and hitting core and leg day a lot, the arm definitely lost some mass but not nearly as much as I was expecting and I retained a surprising amount of strength
I’d be interested to see some of the research on that. Because I know that research has shown that muscle damage isn’t actually thought anymore to be the main driver of muscle growth, but surely mechanical tension is still required for each individual muscle to have stimulus and grow. If what your saying is true couldn’t someone just cut their total volume in half by working only half of their body each session and let the other side catch up? Or is this something only related to injuries and is only minor?
Had a similar case. Broke my arm kickboxing, was hitting the gym 6-7 times a week. Crazy how fast it all goes away after spending so much time gaining it
Muscle tearing like that scares me so bad. I'm just waiting for it to happen to me. I'd rather break a bone, there's something about muscle tearing that gives me shivers.
Avoid steroids and be mindful of volume and intensity. And if it helps, it's the tendon that tears. People often overlook tendon health in pursuit of gains but it's so important for long term function. I actually work in surgery and help repair these.
At least muscle memory is a thing
@StevTunes The problem is, this isn't a joke
😂😂😂
It's not.
@MoonFool This is not a joke. Muscle memory has two definitions. Have you payed attention to biology class?
15 years of muscle memory is gon fix it like nothing
Naaah bro
@Will Thomas bro had amazing shoulders pecs and traps for his age wdym
@Pie Squared π² ok
He wasn’t even that muscular to start he’ll gain it back quickly
@Pie Squared ok
What people don’t know is that once you’ve reached that level, getting back to it takes a fraction of the time if you get out of shape.
bro, let's get him to the foot doctor first for those infected toenails
@strawberrie you don't have to be an expert to see it's like has these weird jagged tears and is yellow and green like you know, not normal. I mean unless yours looks like that too so you thought it's normal...
@terry folds well tell him then
@terry folds I never said it was an infection.
so, really you wrote to me and said his toenails may or may not smell bad when I never said they did.
I in fact said they “might” smell.
So what’s your point?
Do you want to debate on wether his toenails might or might not smell?
Or are you just defending the man’s toes?
@Iain Fraseryellowing isn’t an infection and it may not even smell bad.
Bob needs to go to a foot doctor asap
@Chris of STARS when he steps on the scale
Lol yeah
Ya I can agree
Are you kidding? There’s a super close up shot of both of his feet.
I watched it again but you can't see his feet close
I tore a muscle and didn’t go back to the gym for almost 2 years. I was 165lbs 4 months ago and now im pushing 190 on a good day. Muscle memory is amazing
@Hammad Shahid 😂😂😂😂
@Black Sheep Welding Thanks for sharing, I'll never do weighted dips
@Victor Cortes weighted dips never again it still feels weird to do unweighted dips
How did you tear it?
He never skipped his leg days what a legend
He did watch the full video
19k likes , let me add 27th comment 😂
He never skipped juice day until his injury.
Bro my leg got injured 😭I cant even walk probably
@JH foxen from gym right?🙂
The thing about training is- your muscles grow really fast, the problem lies with your joints, bones and ligaments that have to get used to the sport. They take longer to get used to it but they also stay that way longer, meaning all he has to to is get back the muscle, not also get everything else back into shape
"3leg days a week"
Bro strong af
Bro sounds so chill even tho he tore his muscle 💀
😅😂
😂
@Lil Bear so it's 1% more realistic, please use your braincell
@Azriel MVwhy would he blurr it then? 😂
High school bullies: LETS GET HIM HURRY BEFORE HE COULD TEACH US LESSONS AGAIN
His body tried to handle the Smash attack movement.
I mean, after 100 days still looks way more fit than the average person
We are devolving into idiocracy. Just look at all these nonsensical comments trying to one up each other. Crabs in a bucket mentality, good lord.
@John You’re European, aren’t you
Him after he fell off, is looking about like me on my best day😂😂
@John America isn't even in the top 10 fattest countries.
THE TOENAILS BABE 😭
"BABES" 🤓
@seva BABES HOW CAN YOU NOT LOOK AT IT?? THEYRE FUCKING YELLOW AND LOOK LIKE THEY HAVE MOLD GROWING ON THEM 😭
wtf, there’s only a second or two where it shows his feet and even then you can’t really see anything. why you looking there anyways???? It’s blocked mostly by text
That’s what I’m saying 😂
This really helps me justify not working out, thank you.
If you've been working out for a very long time, you just sneeze and just like that you're back
@George Sebastian both matters, if you’re on steroids and get off of it and don’t work out, you’re gonna lose muscle at a faster rate than if you’re natty. This has been scientifically proven again and again
@yes it does not matter if you are natty or not... When your brain gets used to the process it's going to be like repeating a class
@Bruhl hmm, i guess that was a comprehension mistake on my part, so my bad. but his point was, although you would still lose muscle from not working out as a natural, it’s just much faster as a non natty
@yes ok what does this have to do with me. All I said is that being natural doesn’t stop you from losing your muscle mass lol. I have lost my muscle quickly multiple times due to surgeries and had to start over again
@꧁GlorifiedGremlin꧂ i know that, my point was different
thankfully if I ever get injured, I got nothing to lose
If they were natty gains they would stay longer then 100 days.
My man needs a pedicure
Bruh that shit was nasty 🤮 get some anti fungal meds my guy somebody start a gofundme for him
This is why I love the internet
Bro as soon as I saw him I was like bro is gonna get flamed in the comments 😂
The discipline and muscle memory he has is gonna fix that in no time.
good luck bro.
I need to get back to how I was before I tore my labrum in my shoulder. What kind of transformation did he make?
Now we get to see how muscle memory really works
@Papa pronator
It's muscle memory brah
@msschubi You have things called motor neurons. Your nervous system remembers how much muscle you had and how to use it. All it takes is putting the mass back on, which your body is fast at because your metabolism, gut, enzymes, etc. are all used to building and maintaining lots of muscle.
@Corpsie but your muscles aren’t remembering anything, they don’t have a brain. It’s a strange term. That’s my point.
@Corpsie words can and should change.
@Papa pronator u literally just said the definition of muscle memory my guy
Thank you for telling me this I just ripped almost all of my tricep off the bone recently getting surgery in 2 days
These comments give me hope! Torn ACL,MCL and medial cartilage after a knee dislocation and I've lost so much muscle and gained a gut in just 4 months... Can't wait to get fit and strong again after recovery post op 💪🏻
Bro just started talking to the camera whilst his friends bicep is torn💀

My man is standing there in shear agony n your just commentating.
*LOVE IT*
Won’t even take 90 days, he’ll be back to normal in 60
@Dios es nuestro Salvador síganlo he's natty
gh
You don't know how much i have been waiting for this :
clip-share.net/video/iL0XlnE7_eU/video.html
He is back to normal. Now he has to go back to the gym to try and puff himself up again.
My man literally was waiting for this moment to make a video on it😳
Happens really easily when you push your body past its genetic disposition. Some people just pack and keep muscle really well and some have to work a bit harder to keep ot up
bro is still more fit than me 💀
@Klaedoe exactly
@AntonioDucc genetics dont affect whether you can get fit or not. You dont have to be the buffest dude on earth to be fit, nor you have to be slimmest. I believe you can do whatever set your mind to man, even if you dont have great genetics
@barnie woodward no shit sherlock i wasn't being serious 😭
@AntonioDucc you can , just be consistent , stop with the negativity
That’s sad bro…
I know a guy who did something like this. While he was recovering he would work his other side while doing the motion on his injured side. He read somewhere that it helped retain strength and improve recovery speed. He says that it worked for him
this just gives me another excuse not to even start
"Okay, so he just tore his biceps off."
@NK yes its obvious but the skit is funny
Didn't he just edit himself talking into the vid?
@Tbr Lanchelot looked like a green screen
@Josiah Maloney yes
It's been 3 months without working out, I still have muscles💀
great commitment, I'd never have such thing
We not finna let them toes slide 😭
@SeparatiX AMV Bruh if he's saying his mom won't take him he's clearly too young to drive
@Gabe Itch if you're serious, get it over the counter. If you Google fungal nail infection, you'll see that it's not something you want to let fester
@Gabe Itch just go by urself then tf
I couldn’t imagine missing 100 days. I was devastated at how much i lost after pulling a muscle in my chest and that was only a couple weeks
Aww poor muscle boy lol
Wtf how did that happen
I get annoyed from being off gym for a week or 2 because I’m ill so I can’t imagine being injured like that
This is what sucks the most about working out. One thing goes wrong and there goes all your hard work. It happened to me, I was in good shape, then I got really sick and couldn't work out for like a month, and just in that month I lost all my muscle definition.
Muscle memory is finna bless this guy
Its like newgame+
@RIDDHIJIT SEN yup
@Sayfu HQ bro plays roblox for sure
“Is finna”??
@hunterek ... sorry was there a joke somewhere i missed?
my dad was an athlete when he was younger. like competing in sport events and winning medals and all that stuff. he hasnt worked out since some years now, maybe going to the gym once half a year and has lost quite a lot of muscle mass. but he can still easily do idk like 20 push ups just randomly, even when a little drunk like he does it everyday. muscle memory is an interesting thing truly. so im pretty sure this guy will get back in shape.
I blew put my knee about 6 weeks ago and I can definitely tell a difference already in leg sizes
"His left arm is around 35cm, while his right arm is around 36.5cm"
*Immediately goes to check comments.*
Same
Me on the 1st Dec by about midday:
Me on the 1st Dec
I get that alot of people are joking but a good 90% of these commenters dont know that right handed people will always have a bigger right hand and arm 😂
"Remember, they're brothers, not twins"
It happened to me when I broke my collarbone, it's horrible but after 18 months I'm bigger and stronger than ever. In case anyone is going through the same shit, you will come out the other side better!
similar thing happened to me, in HS my sophomore year i had a complete swimmer body then broke my left arm after 8 months of not being able to work out i went to having a meh body, still struggling to get back into habit of working out
Moral of the story. Working out is a never ending battle
You can not workout for 3 weeks and still be the same size. You don't start losing muscle for awhile. So don't think if you don't work out for a week you are losing gains. You are not.
@Dan Danger unlike you, I'm giving reason behind my point
This is exaggerated for views I didn't lose all my muscle after getting lazy with it during covid and being furloughed and taking a year and a half off, so some guy ain't gunna lose 100% in 3 and a half months, unless he was in a massive caloric defecit, he would lose some yeah and mainly alot of strength but not even close to 100%unless he was starving himself
@Oye Hoye do pushups
@Oye Hoye fatherless mindset
This video made me feel like my gains are melting away
Good thing muscle memory exists.
bro really experimentin with humans now 💀

Pfp checks out
I became a truck driver, I haven't worked out much the last year and a half. It's coming back pretty quickly
I just had surgery on a torn labrum and torn bicep tendon requiring bicep tenodesis and posterior labrum repair. I’m in the army and full recovery time is 9-12 months for me to get back to full duty. It sucks because I can tell the difference in arms a lot to the point I don’t want to work out. I still can lift my arm past breast level. It’s awful. Seeing this is motivational
Had a torn bicep teneon last year, good luck! It will get better sooner than you think, once it begins to regenerate
I was in the peak shape of my life when I left the USMC. Less than a month later I was hit by a truck going 45mph while I was on foot. The only reason I survived is because the truck had enough clearance to go over my body without dragging me. I spent three months in the hospital and had three years of surgeries to finally repair my shattered pelvis properly. That meant I spent most of those three years in a bed. I'm kind of a shell of my former self and yet I'm as close to 100% as I'll ever be.
I used to love working out but all this shit made me lose that drive. I hope I can find it again
@Poopy PoopMuscle memory already is like roids
@Danny PTry stemcells like Ronnie Coleman maybe if nothing else works like other surgeries
Dude you're strong af now mentally i bet!
Thank you for your service and I pray you return to full strength in Jesus Name. You can do it.
Bro, you’re lucky to still be with us. That’s more than enough for you to try again, for all those that lost that chance. (edit:typo)
This made me feel so good. Im 6 foot 2 and i weight about 145 to 150. I just started working out to gain muscle. I think that maybe Im doing that bad. I hope bro gets his muscle back!
I did the exact same thing. I don’t understand why people can’t still work out from this or a lot of injuries. I still ran. Did abs. Legs etc. lost muscle in my left arm obviously but didn’t lose anything else
Muscle indeed has memory. And it ALWAYS remembers the good ole days and is eager to return.
Mmm nah that's not really a thing
@Mad Milk Awesome. I didn't know this. I'm gonna key that term into my muscle flux capacitor to help optimize the muscle time machine. Thanks 😊
@Quantum Potential if I’m not mistaken that’s called myonuclei cells, these are what u cultivate when u workout and are what will get u back all your muscles super fast if you lose any
@Miss K oh Missy ... you just need to feed your muscle flux capacitor and your muscles will immediately lift up 88 pounds to return to the past. It's right there in the glove box of the DeLorean, page 33 of the owners manual of the muscle time machine.
Muscle memory is about movements, not building muscle. Your muscles "remember" how to do exercises and skills. They don't remember how to grow bigger. That just comes with the work.
Been lifting for 10 years now I'm currently 1 month in recovering from a patellar tendon rupture. My left leg has shrunk to probably the same size as it was in my first year of lifting. Looks so god damn weird every time I look at it
I can attest to that. I started working out again 2 years ago. Then I tore my bicep 1 year ago. I haven’t been able to work out since 😡
“ah i finally recovered from tearing my bicep”
“oh good well anyway let’s get your arm back to being thick my man”
I broke my ankle at work and had to have ligament surgery on it in 2021. My poor left Calf muscle looked like a lil chicken leg. The right leg lost some muscle too just from not being able to walk for a while. My left Calf is still a tiny bit smaller than my right but I've gained a lot more muscle back
bro i had this video playing for 2 hours without knowing
Looks like he got a case if toe nail fungus as well. 👍
Your muscles atrophy soo fast. When I had ACL reconstruction, my thigh was tiny just after a week. You really see why paraplegics have such tiny legs
So weird I see this today. A few days ago i tore a tendon in my upper arm/shoulder area while working out
*new fear unlocked*
@Bas Lightyear that's dumb you'd litterly be awake the second the mouse gives that first bite.
Ps: I know it's a joke...
Fear of them toes
@Rayan maybe 3 to 4 months maybe less it not really a exact science it depends.
What about the fear of waking up in the night to a mouse eating your weiner?
@Rayan i fcked up my triceps while working out and I ended up pausing for 2 years altogether…
It took me like 3-4 months at max to get back to peak but I ate and trained like a psychopath :)
But no worries muscle memory is a real thing and way stronger than some people might think ^^
I tore my muscle in half you can actually see two parts of it , so I strapped it. And took the pain , man I took a year to heal but it did and I got a lot of strength back. By doing 150 push up every day.
Bro, still looks to be better shape than me lol
I went thru a similar experience fighting cancer and it sucks losing all your muscle and having to gain it back, but I will say that the body remembers the strength that it’s had before and it will get back to it quicker than the first time. So if for whatever reason you’re not able to train, or youre sick, or maybe you’ve lost motivation for a long period and lost it all, don’t be discouraged because your body remembers and it wants to be fit again, AKA muscle memory. And this gives you an opportunity to start from scratch, so not only do you have muscle memory on your side, you’re now equipped with all the knowledge you’ve gained from the first time you built your physique. So when you build your physique the second time, you now know what works for you, what you like, what your strengths and weaknesses were the first time, etc. I’ve lost my physique completely, but I gained it back and looked way better than before.
Well that's two guys called Timothy who've had their muscles messed up by cancer, it really is horrible, it just becomes hard to eat 3 meals a day and working out is basically impossible, even when it was stage 1, it was damn near impossible, even a year after recovery I still notice the remnants of what it left me with and working outs nowhere easy as it was and that's insane to say for an 18 year old. But ultimately I assume we both came back stronger and pushed through anyway. Salute to you brother
I severed a tendon in my finger which ment that I wasn’t able to work out for 12 weeks and from personal experience I found that it took me about 4 weeks to get back to where I was so he should be back to where he was in around 33 days. 50 at most
Recomp will treat him nicely the calorie surplus and continued auxiliary work will be critical for coming back. He'll bounce back in half that time I promise.
Must be irritating to lose all that in 100 days!
Edit: thanks for all the likes:)
@Shawn M Yeah, I don't think you can debate with yourself.
Clearly you are joking, the guy was healthy, but he did not have a bunch of extra muscle.
@ARCAD3BLOOD I don’t really think he injured his bicep for this but I can see what you’re saying
Tearing muscles lead to increased estrogen, too - I believe this happens, in an attempt to conserve what mass you do have... But, you then have to work against that fresh out of recovery
I worked out for 15 years straight too, then the shit storm of 2020 happened lost quite a bit of muscle. And I've really been trying to get back into it.
It was a nice video
Hyped for 90 day transformation
Yeah I don't know, it sounds like a recipe for another torn bicep honestly 🤷.
All us old folk been there, keep truckin lol
I always feel guilty about this kinda stuff. I'm fortunate enough that I can retain muscle VERY easily without working out. I measured my biceps periodically over a year and they were always at 15 inches. I can't imagine the feeling of loss this gives people. It'll always come back though. Stay strong kings.
Dude he will be back to where he was SO quickly, it’s not going to be anything to worry about. I hope his recovery is complete!
@Steve Scruby recovering from a torn lcl here, thanks for giving me hope. It happened in October and I’ve been sad looking at my skinny little chicken legs wishing I had my beefy sprinter legs back… at least my arms and shoulders are as buff as ever 😅
@gully foyle Always happy to give good info to fellow lifters. I hope you get some good results and peace of mind!
@Steve Scruby I appreciate man, thanks for long answer. Very thoughtful of you.
@gully foyle The real answer is that it varies by individual and genetics. A lot of factors can affect the “return to original physique” timeframe. These can include age, prior training history, gender, severity of injury and quality of personal care during the period of physical inactivity (for example - did this person still maintain good sleep and nutritional habits while injured?)
In terms of answering your question - how long can a person stay inactive / injured before losing the muscle memory (the ability to quickly recover their physique)? That also depends largely on the same factors I listed above.
I will share an anecdote about my own history though. I once had a fairly acute injury in my left shoulder - a Grade 2 separation of the acromioclavicular joint. I couldn’t do any pressing (bench, overhead or otherwise) for over a year. However, once I finished my rehab and healed up, I was hitting new PRs in both my bench press and overhead press within six months, and feeling stronger than ever. More weight, more reps, better form, than ever.
So, in my case, inactivity for 13 or so months didn’t cause me to lose anything for long. I’ve worked with lifters who have been injured for two years and seen them make explosive progress as well.
If you are injured, focus 100% on getting better as soon as possible. Keep your sleep and diet in good order, do your rehab work intelligently, and do whatever activity you can safely do consistently - even if it’s just light cardio or walking. You WILL recover, and you will not be starting from square one if you already have a prior training history. I know it is disheartening to feel like you’ve lost progress, but don’t give up. You will recover everything you had and more. Just get better and get back to training. You got this.
@Steve Scruby how long this inactivity can be max before guy loses his muscle memory is 2years a lot for example ?
I had surgery back to back and didn’t train for a year almost, it’s taken me 3 months to get to an even better spot than I was before my surgeries
Tore my pec last year and implement the exact same game plan (ie caloric surplus and leg days). I’d say the same thing happened in the first 100 days, and by 200 days I’d regained most of what I had lost.
Bro I thought the “torn bicep” thing was a joke at first💀
@Meherab BG 21 nah lol there’s footage in the video from a hospital and stuff lol
Wait it’s not? 💀
After losing all strength in your arm it really hard to get it back to where it was
I was laying down for 7 days, while being sick, last week. Could not eat anything.. and i can see now that I lost some muscles and weight in that period. And imagine how this dude felt after 100 days. But fak it, lets do it all again!
Bro tore his bicep to do this experiment for us. You earn my respect!
*Respect theme plays in the background*
Back when I had asl reconstruction surgery, I lost so much muscle in my leg that there was a visible difference between them. I was only on crutches for just over a week, you lose that shit fast man..
Haven't work out in 2 days and Clip-Share showed me this xdddd it is trying to tell me something ñ
Just goes to show how important it is to consistently train each muscle group.
@merisav4 muscle memory will allow for all that muscle to be regained in just a few months compared to the several years it took to build it the first time
it’s just like building something, building it the first time won’t be easy but building it afterwards will be
@merisav4 dam u must also be a radical feminist then💀
@merisav4lmaoing at u rn
@merisav4 found the guy who thinks exercising isn't for him lol
@merisav4 🧢
At the end his weight was 666 ☠️
Muscles do regrow very quickly after losing it, and I think a lot of us learned that over covid. That being said, say safe and don't get discouraged if you get an injury like this. You will bounce back 👍
The interesting thing about the human body is that even when one side of the body is injured, you can still train the other side of the body and the injured side will still have progress or will maintain its size or strength. That's why it's never recommended to stop training a muscle group all together but to train the uninjured side still; it will prevent atrophy and loss of strength on the injured side.
Edit: I mentioned here the word "progress" when, in reality, I shouldn't have. I should have said that training an uninjured limb will help in preventing the injured limb to lose muscle or strength. But this depends on the length of time the limb is not training of course, the type of injury, and the person. My apologies for confusing anyone!
@juaniusm only to a small extent. Considering the muscle imbalance that could create it might be smart to stick to cardio and non-unilateral training
Another interesting thing is his toenails
average exam:
@Conner Young I guess I had poor choice of words with that part. You're right about the progress and I am not sure why I said that. I guess i was just thinking fast. I'm sorry that I made it confusing for everyone.
But it is true that when you train an uninjured limb, the injured limb won't lose as much muscle or strength if you were to just stop training a muscle group completely.
There are a lot of factors to consider, as to how long the limb isn't being trained, the type of training, the intensity, and so on. There are recent study articles that you can view that talks more in depth about this topic.
At the end of the day, it's still better to train one side of the body if you can't use the other side for a certain period of time than to completely stop training. 😄
@@juaniusm That isn't what you said though. You said you would even see progress with the injured side, and you won't. Nor will you prevent atrophy by doing so.
with the right technique and digital patterns ensures every holder possibility to make more, and as digital holders we must agree to follow professional coordinates cus
nothing beats experience.
I'm really intending to take so much time and turns with him.
That's amazing and nice content I've had so much accomplishment after accepting the introduction of digital unit in the prospect of personal benefits.
I broke my leg on the 5th. Already lost a lot of muscle since then
My dad was involved in a horrific accident was in and out of hospitals for over a year, survived. Weighed around 200 lbs at the time of the accident and around 110 lbs when he was able to walk again. It took him around 7 months to get back to around the same shape. Muscle memory is very real.
Congrats to your dad! Very happy he’s able to walk again.
he must've not been eating enough and taking in enough nutrients (which is the nutritional practitioners fault partly)
Why weren’t you feeding the man
Another level of commitment to tear a muscle just for a Clip-Share short
That's why I don't go to the gym anymore 😂
Fun fact (studying exercise in college so not an expert but am required to read scholarship) your body likes homeostasis so much, that if you exercise your non injured side, your injured side will catch back up and/or make new progress to match the un injured side
@Trey Savage I mean it’s anecdotal but also first hand, I hurt my wriest real bad and couldn’t use the arm at all for months however I refused to give up on working out so did single arm dumbbell bench, dumbbell curls, single arm Cuban press, one armed pushups, everything I could think of and hitting core and leg day a lot, the arm definitely lost some mass but not nearly as much as I was expecting and I retained a surprising amount of strength
I’d be interested to see some of the research on that. Because I know that research has shown that muscle damage isn’t actually thought anymore to be the main driver of muscle growth, but surely mechanical tension is still required for each individual muscle to have stimulus and grow. If what your saying is true couldn’t someone just cut their total volume in half by working only half of their body each session and let the other side catch up? Or is this something only related to injuries and is only minor?
Had a similar case. Broke my arm kickboxing, was hitting the gym 6-7 times a week. Crazy how fast it all goes away after spending so much time gaining it
Thats exactly why i don't work out.
Bro I know this man was going through some pain
Muscle tearing like that scares me so bad. I'm just waiting for it to happen to me. I'd rather break a bone, there's something about muscle tearing that gives me shivers.
Avoid steroids and be mindful of volume and intensity. And if it helps, it's the tendon that tears. People often overlook tendon health in pursuit of gains but it's so important for long term function. I actually work in surgery and help repair these.
"But God laughs, for he knows that the day of leg day skippers will come"
God is coming back soon!! Repent and Believe!! God loves you and wants a relationship with you💓
I mean, he still looks good 🔥 muscle or not
bro teared his muscle on purpose for a video...now that's commitment.
@FiNiSH Random R/woosh
@ccc bbbccc no I'm just right
@FiNiSH Random you're so naive if you really think that
There's no way he did that shit on purpose 😂
It wasn't on purpose
