How to Lose Muscle Mass

Building muscle mass takes a certain dedication to increase the stress you are putting on your muscles over time. Once your muscles become used to a certain amount of weight, going back on that will lead to their deterioration.

Instructions

1

Change your workout schedule. If you were working out 5 days a week and alternating muscle groups, decrease this to 3 days a week, taking 1 day off for each muscle group.

2

Decrease the amount of weight you are lifting. Even a slight change of 1 lb. will affect body composition.

3

Change your diet. Add in empty calories from sugary sodas and junk foods. Pig out on fast food and junk at least 1 day a week.

4

Go long periods without any exercise at all. If you were involved in other activities such as bicycling or running, stop those too.

5

Watch more TV. Spend hours in your house doing nothing but watching TV. Go barhopping on a regular basis, and eat greasy burgers and onion rings.
