Many signs of deconditioning are not always physically visible to the naked eye—but you should expect a loss of muscle mass and size and the accumulation of body fat, says Tom Holland, C.S.C.S., an exercise physiologist.

Speed, endurance, and strength can decrease by 25 to 30 percent within two to three weeks.
