What happens when you quit exercising?

I sat down to do research for this great article idea I had. I was curious to know what are the actual numbers on what happens when you quit exercising?

Why does it feel like I've never exercised in my life when I take 2 weeks off?

Am I really weaker now or is it all in my head?

Sounds like a really interesting premise right? Well LiveStrong.com thought so too.

So rather than trying to reinvent the wheel here is a link to their very interesting article:

Spoiler alert! Not all of them are things that are unexpected. But I can tell you that #7 encouraged me and then #9 depressed me.

Either way a cool article and a quick read. What number was most intriguing for you?
