Maintaining muscle mass


Recommended Posts

Hey everyone!

 

So right now I'm at the point that I'm pretty happy with my overall strength and muscle mass. So far I've been training to icrease, but now I'd just like to maintain. So what do I do? If I just continue exercising without increasing the weights can I expect to stay the same? And how much should I eat to maintain muscle mass? I hope someone can answer this for me 'cause I don't have a clue.

 

Greetings!

What you have to do to maintain depends a lot on what you did to gain the mass in the first place.

If you don't increase weights and volume, you will stop to gain and won't lose too much muscles either. To find the minimum necessary to maintain is harder. I'd do a split training 2-3 times per week and do a lot of different (fun) lifts for all muscles.

Diet wise just eat slightly less. Depending on metabolism and body type, but in general, eat less than when you gained weight
