This happens because during exercise, muscles break down and lose some of their stored glycogen and water. However, with proper rest and nutrition, muscles will recover and grow stronger over time.

Yes, muscles can temporarily shrink after a workout due to a process called muscle fatigue. During intense exercise, muscles use up stored energy and fluids, causing them to temporarily decrease in size. This shrinkage is usually temporary and the muscles will return to their normal size after rest and recovery.

Yes, Romanian deadlifts (RDLs) are effective for strengthening the lower back as well as the hamstrings and glutes.

A bro split, which involves training different muscle groups on different days, can be effective for muscle growth and strength gains if done properly with sufficient intensity and volume.

A fast heart rate during exercise does not necessarily mean that calories are being burned more efficiently. The efficiency of calorie burning during exercise depends on various factors such as intensity, duration, and individual metabolism.
