Muscle Atrophy / Muscle Wasting

Your Body Is Speaking

Muscles waste when they are no longer used. That is not a punishment and not a defect — it is one of the clearest rules by which the body operates. What you use, it builds up. What you leave unused, it breaks down. An arm in a cast loses visible mass within a few weeks. A leg that is rested after an injury grows thinner. A person confined to bed for days stands up weaker at the end than when they lay down. This is not an accident — it is a principle.
