There was a article I had on the specific subject above but I still can't find it. I thought I saved it but maybe not. I'll keep looking. Here is some more reading on these pages:

http://www.hypertrophy-research.com
Did find a paper I had which was a good overview but was mostly focused on aging and strength. It did confirm what I was saying about initial strength losses being neural. I.E. a decline in maximum neural activity during the firts 2 to 4 weeks of "detraining". That doesn't mean there won't necessarily be muscle loss but that most of the loss of strength is neural in nature during that time. Of course I'm talking about detraining and not immobilization such as getting your arm in a cast. That will cause very rapid atrophy.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
