Muscle memory is very real.... I had to take a year off the gym due to an injury that started causing blood cloths. I lost a lot of muscle, from about 215lbs to low 180s. I am 6'4 btw, to put in perspective how low that is for me. Within 2 months of working out again, I got back up to 205lbs. Within 4-5 months I felt as bigger and stronger as before. Its incredible how it works, because on my first workout back I felt like I was working out as a complete beginner. I felt weak, nauseated, low endurance, and in a matter of months, I was as strong as ever.
dude you are a fucking god send, concise, informative and useful. I really appreciate how you use real biology rather than bro science or experience only to explain, as someone who does biology it's nice to finally see this in the fitness YT community
I had stopped working out about two years ago. I just got back not more than a month ago, and I'm already seeing result! Of course. This video explains it.
Seriously these are the best videos I have ever seen on fitness. Major kudos! You do an amazing job of both illustrating and explaining the topics so that it is easily understandable!! Thank you so much and keep them up!
This effect comes also in handy to singers (singing is also just a coordinated use of several muscles) after a longer "singing break" or also to other form of arts.
Finally, someone gets it. Muscles don't have the capacity to remember. Only the brain does that. What the muscles do is adapt to the stress that has been put on them. I used to be able to run a 2:52 marathon and now I'm not even close. Not because they "forgot", but they no longer have the stimulus of training mileage and speed work. The guy that goes back in the weight room has muscles that still have adaptations to the previous stimuli.
It's a great video, but I really wanted to look at the source material, and was disturbed to find that most of the pubmed articles had nothing to do with it.
Well fat cells first grow in size and then divide. So when you're gaining fat, you're also increasing the amount of fat cells. When you're losing fat the cells just shrink, but the amount of cells actually stays the same. At least that's the way I remember it. Correct me if I'm wrong.
You're absolutely right, that's what I remember as well. You need to have lost weight for a long period of time before the amount of fat cells starts falling.

Are you sure that’s what it is? Another description I’ve come across is the ability of doing things without particularly thinking about doing it cause you’ve done it so many times Like shifting gears when cruising in most cases your body will do it without you consciously thinking about doing it

I trained for 4 years and after that I havent for about 2 because of life corona etc. I started again month ago and hope that muscle memory works after couple of years instead of months...
I've been training hard 2 months and then stopped my journey for 1 month. Now, only for 1 month i got back to my previous position that took for me 2 months. This. Is. So. True.
Had been working out for half a year, broke my arm and was out for about 6 months. Now I'm back and feel just as strong, just alittle pain and less flexibility in that arm. But can still do like 50 pulls and 100 push up
I trained hard for 4 years, then stuff happened and I didnt consistently train for about 3 years and then did pretty much nothing for 3 years. Now, I've been training for about 6 weeks and its coming back sooo fast!! I am so happy I did all that work years ago XD .. I am a woman btw.
Muscle memory is doing something so repeatedly that you can do it without thinking, just like I can enter the cheat codes on Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, Gta 3, and Gta vice city without thinking about it
I'm here cuz I stopped working out a year ago. Took off to take care of my girl and my newborn. Then I couldn't go after new year and then covid hit. Just got some 100lbs adjustable dumbbells to set up my small home gym.

An explanation why calisthenics muscles last longer? From my personal experience, I had a very bad rotator cuff tear and I couldn't work the upper part for 5 months. However, my body hasn't changed a lot. My chest became less pumped and the back muscles of the injured part is the only part which had loss of muscle.
Got a heavy lifting job and ive started being vegetarian taking 2 oxycotin and prednisone and 5 multivitamins a day. Since I have a degree in fitness and nutrition i know how to self medicate. Prednisone cause me to lower stress and store up water and cortisone. Being vegeterian and vitamins well nutrition and testeterone. The oxycotin is for pain tolerance and dopamine. I got 3 babes in the process❤
Hi guys, I wanted to ask if you can make a video regarding "six pack" how do you get it? How long do I have to make a diet for? All this will be very helpful.Thanks. PS:Your videos are always great keep up the work.
or any lifters that reach a plateau i'd SERIOUSLY recommend just laying off exercise for at least 2-3 months or so. You'll lose most of your muscle mass but when you hit it again from scratch that muscle memory kicks in hard. Personally i find ive developed a leaner bigger physique once i went on that fast from working out.
I always thought muscle memory was the ability to do something without thinking hard about it... Like playing a song without thinking about it because you've played it so much. Is there a word for what I described?
That IS muscle memory literally. This in the video isn't muscle memory all literally. Which is why the dude in the beginning in the video said it wasn't n put quotations "muscle memory" because it's not. It's just a phrase people put in body building but it's not technically nor literally muscle memory.
Exactly!! All that hard work we put in has torn and rebuilt the muscle fibres! That will never disappear unless we were stranded/without food for a long time having depleted fat stores then and only then will our muscle atrophy cause ur body will burn muscle as fuel 😅
Well on the bright side you get to experience doms again. Those calf doms are one of my favs. If you never worked out adductors oh man those are the worst doms I've ever felt in my life. I tried that sex machine women always do opening n closing legs at like 3am with no one around for shit m giggles and it actually fucked my life lmao
Learning to play a musical instrument is also largely down to muscle memory, and that is an *amazing* muscular feat if you think about it, although of a different kind.
I was signing my name on a job application and my ADHD as brain just says "I wonder how muscle memory works" and here I am. 🤦♂️. A blessing and a curse at the same time lol
I've heard guys say that the fascia has been stretched already to a certain point so it's easier for the muscle to grow back to its original size and then slows to normal???
Can you talk about muscle memory in terms of myelination and what occurs in the very beginning-- why a dance move is so awkward at first and how we go from zero to one? (Vs why it's easier to come back)
this applies to using keyboard bc at first we try to stretch our fingers we even have to look at the keyboard to type a key but with much practice we get better bc our fingers get more comfortable and we would use a keyboard more efficient
The older you get, the harder it becomes to get back in the game. Do yourselves a favor and never quit in the first place. At 16 I could run 5k on command, without training for it. At 34 it took me 3 months to complete a 5k run..
It depends how long the break isn't? Let's say one squats 300lbs and does 30 reps 'easily' and then decides to take a 6 month break, and begins to attempt to squat the same weight after the 6 month break there's no they would be able to squat that weight because of muscle atrophy. Correct me if I'm wrong. Great channel by the way I'm learning a lot.
Yes, muscle breakdown will occur. The point is that it will take less time to get back to the 300lb/30rep set than it was the first time it took to achieve it.
I am doing an Extended Essay on Muscle Memory, which later I am going to present it to university. Is there any way we can get in contact so I can ask you some questions?

I'm 16. A week ago, at my peak, i weighed 58kg. I trained every other day (3-4 days a week).

Seeing as though muscle memory exists, how long will it take for me to regain muscle?
do you still require as much protein as before to regain your muscles or can you manage without. I've got fat after not training and don't want to excessively eat.

is there such thing as a FAT memory too?
Well fat cells first grow in size and then divide. So when you're gaining fat, you're also increasing the amount of fat cells. When you're losing fat the cells just shrink, but the amount of cells actually stays the same.
At least that's the way I remember it.

You're absolutely right, that's what I remember as well. You need to have lost weight for a long period of time before the amount of fat cells starts falling.
blackpicha yes but the amount of fat you put on if you're in a caloric surplus remains the same no matter how many fat cells you have
i laughed way too hard for this one lol
Yes, therefor it's difficult to lose weight and easy to gain it.
