Weight loss and GLP-1 medications
If you are using, or thinking about, a GLP-1 medication such as semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy) or tirzepatide (Mounjaro, Zepbound), strength training and enough protein are often recommended alongside it to help protect lean muscle while you lose weight. A personal trainer can build a progressive plan around your energy, appetite and recovery.
Decisions about medication, dosing and side effects are between you and your prescriber. Trainers on TrainerMatch coach exercise and habits, not medication.
