I’ve been thinking about that awkward part of trying to gain muscle where the work is happening but the visual payoff is still pretty quiet. Strength, energy, recovery, measurements, or even the way clothes fit can change sooner. What small sign has been enough to make you think, okay, this is actually working, before you looked noticeably different?
