Over 10 million Americans have used a GLP-1 and that number is climbing fast. In this episode, we cut through the hype and break down what you actually need to know if you're on Ozempic, Wegovy, or any GLP-1 medication and you don't want to lose the muscle you've worked for.
What we cover:
Why GLP-1s don't inherently cause muscle loss and what actually does
The problem with standard dosing for some folks
The two non-negotiables before you even consider starting a GLP-1
Why women in particular need to pay attention
The long-term unknowns with GLP-1s, peptides, and why blood work isn't optional
The bottom line: Strength train. Aim for around 100g of protein daily. Watch your dose. Get your blood work. And for the love of all things, don't sacrifice muscle to be smaller — be substantial.
