“Whether or not body building is your hobby, muscles need your constant attention. Because the way you treat them on a daily basis determines whether they will wither or grow.”
Personal Trainer, Jeff Siegel explains in What Makes Muscles Grow (published on TED Ed) that muscles do not just rely on activity to grow. Maintaining proper nutrition, getting adequate rest, and developing these best practices into a routine all contribute as well.
