Lesson Overview

2.58 – Muscle Growth During Illness or High Stress: Illness and high stress shift the body into survival mode. Energy is redirected toward healing instead of building muscle. Strength can drop quickly during these periods. Training hard during illness often delays recovery. Smart training during stress focuses on maintenance, not progression. Light movement can help circulation without draining recovery. Nutrition becomes even more important during stress. Protein and fluids support healing processes. This lesson teaches lifters to respect recovery signals. Short pauses do not erase long-term progress. Returning slowly prevents setbacks. Protecting health preserves future strength.
