GLP-1 Exercise Guide: Build Strength, Preserve Muscle

Sneakers, water bottle, free weights, and stretch bands all equipment needed for strength training on GLP-1 meds.

Why should you exercise with GLP-1 meds? Well, if you’re trying to lose weight, exercise complements the medication by helping you burn calories.  Another reason?  Approximately 20–25% of the actual weight lost when taking a GLP-1 is lean muscle tissue.  This can lead to serious long-term problems. To avoid this exercise is your best recourse. It builds muscle!

Free weights, resistance bands, and sneakers — simple tools that work well for GLP-1 strength training.
