More Muscle? Only If Your Body’s Ready for It.
Everyone’s chasing muscle growth — bigger arms, stronger legs, thicker back. But here’s the question almost nobody asks: Does your body actually want that muscle?
What Happens When You Build Muscle On Top of Dysfunction
If your body is stuck in bad alignment, carrying old tension, breathing inefficiently, and lacking movement control, every new muscle fiber you add isn’t building strength — it’s patching up a problem. Your body recruits that new muscle to compensate for everything that’s stuck, weak, or out of place.
What does that lead to?
More tightness instead of more strength.
Less mobility instead of better movement.
Higher injury risk, because you’re stacking power on top of dysfunction.
Muscle Isn’t the Goal — Movement Is.
Muscle only helps if it fits into a system that works. That means:
Your joints stack well.
Your fascia can recoil and release.
Your breath supports your movement.
Your muscles know how to work together, not just in isolation.
Before you chase muscle, learn to use the muscle you already have — inside a body that moves the way it’s supposed to. That’s how you get strong without getting stuck.
