    What is muscle memory, really?

    Some say muscle memory happens in the muscles; others say it happens in the mind. And then there’s the spinal cord... Find out what this all means with Naomi as she shows us the science behind muscle memory and how your body can remember a movement that you haven’t done in years.

    Could muscle memory help get your strength back faster?

    Many of us have experienced the dreaded muscle atrophy from pausing our training. It's daunting to go back to the gym and to consider how much effort it will take to bring the muscle back. But thanks to an incredible feature of your muscles, it won't take nearly as long the next time you start training. Find out what causes this and how this will help your training with Naomi as she takes us on a deep dive into the science behind skeletal muscle memory in a 3-video series.

    Muscle growth and atrophy: how does the myonuclear domain theory work?

    What's happening in your muscles when you train them? What's inside them that actually causes them to grow bigger and stronger? How does this relate to muscle memory? What does this mean for your training? Naomi, a chembio engineer by training, takes us on a deep dive into the science behind skeletal muscle growth and memory in a 3-video series. This is video 2 of that series.
