Muscle hypertrophy takes time to build and achieve, meanwhile muscle atrophy doesnt take long. This question is a loaded question. It depends on many factors, hormone levels, supplements, cortisol levels, types of training, DIET, and activity level. For example, if youre under a lot of stress, running distance and have a cold, its not going to take long at all to lose a significant amount of muscle, however if youre taking in an qdequate amount of protein, arent endurance training and decide to take a week off from training to let your body fully recover, you probably wont lose a significant amount of muscle or strength, your diet is the determining factor and your caloric intake.Comment
