When muscles are not used regularly, a process called muscle atrophy occurs, leading to a decrease in muscle mass and strength. This happens because the body starts to break down muscle proteins for energy and does not replace them as effectively. Additionally, prolonged inactivity can lead to a decrease in muscle endurance and overall functionality. Regular exercise is essential to maintain muscle health and prevent these negative effects.
