Muscle isn’t as fragile as gym culture makes it seem.
It takes time to build.
And it takes time to lose.
What disappears first isn’t muscle —
it’s glycogen, water, and the pump you’re used to seeing.
That’s not regression.
That’s physiology.
Once you understand that,
training becomes calm instead of anxious.
And calm training is always more consistent.
