So I’m on a major caloric deficit given a medical injury- I’m on a liquid diet through a tube.
Am I going to lose muscle if I work them out or will my body keep the muscle since I’m using them?
I can’t make gains right now but I can maintain to an extent so I’m wondering if working my muscles will overwork them and I’ll lose them or not??
