Kinesiology researchers find unused muscles shrink quickly

New research by York kinesiologists is advancing our understanding of why
our muscles shrink when we don't use them. Michael O'Leary, a doctoral
student in York's School of Kinesiology & Health Science, found that a week
of total muscular disuse - such as experienced after a serious injury - can
cause 24 per cent muscle loss. "It really is a case of use it or lose it,"
he says.
