Resistance Training

Incorporating resistance training while using GLP-1 medications for weight loss is one of the most effective ways to preserve muscle, boost metabolism, and achieve long-term results. GLP-1s often reduce appetite and improve blood sugar control, which can lead to significant weight loss—but without strength training, much of that weight can come from muscle, as well as fat. Resistance training helps maintain and even increase lean muscle mass, which is critical for keeping your metabolism strong, supporting joint health, and improving daily function as the number on the scale goes down. It also enhances mood, energy, and confidence—key factors in staying consistent with a healthier lifestyle.
