Ment to put title as "How long untill you start losing strength/muscle from not going gym?"
Last Monday was my chest/tri day and i couldn't get to the gym so i did what i could at home but it wasnt that much of a workout, Today monday again chest/tri i go to gym to find out that on top of there price increase for the gym a month you have to pay a joining fee again :| so ive missed my proper workout again and went home and did bench tried doing incline but had no spotter so couldn't do that :| and done 2 triceps exercises.
i feel like 2 weeks of no proper workout will make me lose my strength? how long till i start losing strength and size?

^^^ Was just gonna say that you really dont lose any muscle mass, its all just in your head. You may look like you lose muscle mass because maybe you gain a little bf% from not lifting, but it really is just mental

You won't actually begin to lose muscle for a long time, I'm talking yeard with poor nutrition and not getting enough protein/eating properly.
You lose strength pretty quickly though unfortunately.
2 weeks doesn't kill thoughBeginners, read:
