I’ve only been on e for a few months, but I’m pretty sure I’m losing strength… I just went around my house picking random stuff up, and it all felt so heavy. If a guy asks me to help him lift something and I fail miserably, I’ll have to either die on the spot or never show my face to him again.

I don’t hate it, but I’ll still have to start doing some strength training soon.

    its normal. muscle mass is retained sometimes, but it loses its density. i can run like an 8 min mile but if i take like a week off i lose 40 sec off my time.

      An eight minute mile sounds really impressive but I’m not a runner so idk. I ride my bike a lot (but wouldn’t dare call myself a cyclist) and I’ve pretty much retained my speed, but I might have been making up for it because I’ve found myself becoming a lot more mechanically refined. I used to pump up hills on my highest gear, but I haven’t dared in a while.
