  • Getting sick.

    if you are a bodybuilder and you catch the flu, and dont eat for like 2 days, what kind of damage can that do? if you lost 10 lbs, would most of it be muscle? water? is it possibly to just lose that much muscle that fast?

    Not all muscle, your body has stored energy for situations like this, but it is important to not starve yourself. Keep sometime of nutrients flowing, even if its shakes most of the day.

      If I get the flu I just keep eating, unless if i'm puking, which I haven't done in a while.

          Depends on several factors, really hard to tell, youll know when you return to the gym....

            Im assuming you were puking and shitting you guts out for those 2 days. Most of the weight you lost was liquids and waste that your body was holding. You might have lost a bit of muscle but it was mostly just body fluids and waste.

            Drink lots of fluids and double up on the vitamans.

                        it must be because i was on the m1t cycle and i didnt take it for 2 days, probably lost most of my gains from the cycle, its been 2 days later and still down 5.5 lbs, which is a lot for me since i am only 135.5 now, o well, next time will be better i guess, i start pct in about a week
