If I haven’t worked out in a month how much muscle did I lose?

You’ll be back where you left off in 2 or 3 weeks

muscle-memory is real bro don't worry about it.. just grind through the annoying period where you're not at your best but you'll get back there very fast

can I gain it back fast?

How fast? Within a few months? Definitely possible. Anything sooner is possible too, but it’s dependent on the usual suspects. e.g. programming, nutrition, sleep etc..

Better to focus on where you are now; and what what your end goal is moving forward. Framing it that way is far more beneficial; rather than what you loss.

Godspeed and goodly luck!

I remember reading or hearing somewhere that you only start to lose muscle 2-3 weeks after you stop training. You probably didn't lose that much, and you'll gain it back quickly due to muscle memory.

All of it.

Not much. You should get it all back within a few weeks
