Jeff Nippard cited a study showing that after 8 months of little training (about 1/9 of what was normally done), the participants still retained a decent amount of their muscle mass. Participants who stopped completely working out, lost all their gains. Not sure how reliable the study is (probably not for more advanced lifters) but something is better than nothing.

After lifting for 12 years I quit for 4. When I finally got back in the gym it only took 6 months for me to start putting up the same numbers. That being said it probably took a solid year and a half to look like I did before but I think that had way more to do with age.
