Fitness Facts

You lose muscle slower than you gain it - taking a few weeks off from the gym won't erase months of progress thanks to 'muscle memory' at the cellular level.

The most push-ups ever performed in one day was 46,001 by Charles Servizio.

Each year, 30,000 people are seriously injured by exercise equipment.

Thanks to muscle memory, strength and muscle lost during a break from exercise can be regained much faster than it took to build originally.
