Subject: RE: Preventing Muscle Loss While Training If you use muscles, you will build/keep them. If you don't, you will tend to lose them. "Jacked up" triathletes you see may, in fact, do a fair amount of lifting. Of course, that probably doesn't help them to be better triathletes. The muscles they build swimming, biking and running (not the "jacked up" type of muscle look one usually associates with working out in the gym ) are the ones that matter for them since those are the ones they use. |
