You can lose all your fat with just weight training alone but cardio in morning on an empty stomach or with an E.C.A.This article is written like a personal reflection, personal essay, or argumentative essay that states a Wikipedia editor's personal feelings or presents an original argument about a topic. I cant stress enough that if your in your 30s stay with a clean low glycemic index,high protein 1gram per lb bodyweight eating lifestyle (no dieting).

I think muscle maturity after late 20s helps with hypertrophy and strength. Iused to squat 405lbs for 10reps and my 1st time back in gym i could only do 135lbs for 10reps two sets. My shoulders and legs seem to be the weakest. I just started back in the gym and in the 1st week i can still do 75-80% of my arm strength weight max and chest. I always had a 6-pack until i stopped strength training in my early 30s. Recently ive gotten to be very out of shape and high blood pressure. In more than 15years (age 25) as a bodybuilder. Im now in my 40’s and have not worked out or taken P.E.D. These results are yet to be replicated in human studies.Muscle memory phenomenon can be largely explained by muscles maintaining their muscle nuclei during muscle loss or detraining.The recent studies only counted the actual muscle nuclei and showed no loss. So researchers mistakenly assumed that the muscle nuclei die with muscle loss. In previous studies they were counting nuclei which belonged to the connective tissue and other cells (satellite cells).

The recent studies used a different technique to study these nuclei. But why did we think muscle nuclei die with muscle loss? They know how much muscle you had before you stooped training. So these muscle nuclei seems to acts like ‘memory cells’. So what? Since now the muscle has the same number of muscle nuclei after we stopped training, it is easy to build the muscle back to its previous size.

However, recently, studies using different animal models (denervation, unloading, synergic ablation) showed that as muscle atrophies or shrinks due to inactivity or detraining (until 3 months), there is no loss of muscle nuclei as we previously thought! As shown in the picture, the muscle size decreased by 50% (lines) but the muscle nuclie count (stained with green dye) remained the same. And this was supported in studies which showed as muscle shrinks in size, the number of nucleus decreases too. Just like muscle growth, we believed that when we lose muscle, the opposite happens - we lose some nuclei since there is no reason for the extra nuclei to sit around. It has been shown that people who take steroids and people who grow muscle easily have lot more muscle nuclei than normal. The increase in nucleus with muscle growth has been shown in number of studies. So when your muscles get bigger, you have to add more muscle nucleus. So why do muscles need so many nuclei? The nucleus is basically what controls the cell and since your muscles are a lot lot bigger and way more complex than other cells in the body, one or two nuclei just cannot do the job. Unlike other cells, muscle cells have more than one nucleus (probably thousands). The nervous system mechanisms may explain the strength gains, but it doesn’t explain how you can gain back the muscle size so quickly.īut recent studies show that we may have finally solved the mystery of muscle memory How did they solve it? We used to believe this is largely due to the nervous system mechanisms. This phenomenon is called ‘ muscle memory’. However, if you start training back again, you gain the lost muscle or strength within a few weeks - as if the muscle remembers where you left off. Muscle memory is what? We all know that if you lift weights and stop lifting for a few months (3-6 months), you will lose strength and muscle.
