The Shocking Truth:
Muscle Loss and Injuries
Did you know it takes only 30 days to lose 3 months of gym progress and muscle gains (if you don’t train)?
It’s true.
In the brand new study below, participants trained for 3 months, and then stopped. It took them 10 days to lose 50% of their gains, and 30 days to lose 100% of their gains.
More details here for you:
Let that sink in for a moment.
The time, effort, and sacrifice you’ve poured into the gym—years of hard work—can disappear faster than you ever imagined.
It’s unsettling, isn’t it?
Now, consider this: how long have you been injured?
Six months? A year? Longer?
If your injury has kept you sidelined for months, you’ve likely lost far more strength and muscle than you realize.
And here’s the hard truth:
That decline won’t stop until you take action. And if nothing changes, here’s what the next 6–12 months could look like…
MUSCLE LOSS ISN’T JUST COSMETIC
We both know losing muscle isn’t just about looking smaller in the mirror. The ripple effects go far deeper.
And they can be devastating:
- Weaker Joints: Muscle supports and stabilizes your joints. Without it, your injury worsens, and new ones may follow.
- Slower Metabolism: Less muscle means fewer calories burned at rest, making it harder to maintain your physique.
- Loss of Confidence: Every lift you can’t do, every movement you avoid—it chips away at your belief in your body.
- Longer Recovery Times: The more muscle you lose, the harder and longer it takes to rebuild.
Here’s the harsh reality:
Muscle doesn’t magically return when you decide to train again. The longer you wait, the harder (and more expensive) it becomes to get back to where you want to be.
WAITING IS THE REAL RISK
When you’re injured, hesitation is the most dangerous decision you can make — because you make zero progress, and guarantee the very failure you want to avoid.
Take Steve, for example…
• 10 years of pain
• First spoke in 2023
• He wasn’t ready to commit
“I want to try and figure things out alone before working with you” he said… hoping things would improve.
They didn’t.
Steve contact me again at the end of 2024…
Still injured and in pain — his hesitation had unnecessarily cost him an additional 21 months of losing muscle, losing strength, and wasting even more time.
On the flip side, there’s Adam…
Adam had the same 10+ years of pain but made a different choice. He booked a call, asked smart questions, and committed to taking action.
Within weeks, his pain subsided.
Within months, he was training pain-free, stronger than ever, and more confident in his body.
The difference? Adam acted, and Steve hesitated.
WHICH PATH ARE YOU ON?
I understand how long-term injuries leave you stuck, fearful, and uncertain… especially after 2, 3, or even 4 failed attempts with physios who couldn’t help.
But if you’re courageous like Adam, and you’re willing to try a proven approach that will help you…
✅ Eliminate pain at its root.
✅ Stop muscle loss and rebuild strength.
✅ Train harder, move freely, and live without limits.
We’ll have a chat about your situation, see if I can help, and identify if we’re a good fit to work together.
Your alternative?
Do nothing. Continue down the same path that hasn’t worked. In six months you’ll still be stuck — losing muscle, battling pain, and feeling even more frustrated as the cycle becomes harder to break.
The choice is yours.
Book your call today — it could be the decision leading you to a stronger, pain-free, and confident life in 2025.
