My muscles are fine, it's the fat cells that need to forget.
Anecdotally I've always heard this and experienced it myself, interesting to see it's backed by evidence!
Definitely! I feel like this was fairly common knowledge even a decade ago and why people would quickly rebound back to previous size and strength when returning to fitness- muscle memory due to myonuclei persisting even when the actual tissue atrophies. I guess this is an additional state of memory for the body. Super neat!
Jokes on them they can't remember what they didn't have
My muscles: "I remember nothing"
My app shows the image as "failed to load" and I'm now a little curious if that is funnier than whatever you actually put there.
It's not supposed to be an image, it's supposed to be a link? Weird. But I also like that it shows failed to load, that works too! I am so used to putting image links I accidentally made it an image link first before I made it a normal link, maybe the edit hasn't propagated to your instance yet.
That's kinda cool to hear! Not that it's been terribly long so it might not even affect me, but I finally got myself into the habit of working out doing simple body weight exercises for over a year and then I either tore something or got tendonitis in my elbow at work and had to stop for like 4 months now... Glad to know I won't be losing as much as I thought if I have to say off the arm for much longer.
I've had that same injury, from BWF/kettlebell workouts. Its a bastard. Generally called "golf elbow" if on the inside and "tennis elbow" if on the outside.
I found these bendy bars really help rehab it if you do the recommend excersize. I use one of these gyroscopic resistance balls now as well in my current routine to strength the wrist/forearm/elbow and haven't had a relapse.
Shit, they must be very disappointed with me...
