If you're using a GLP-1 medication like Ozempic, Mounjaro, or Wegovy, chances are you’ve seen weight loss results—but did you know a large portion of that loss can be lean muscle mass?
Studies show up to 50% of weight lost on GLP-1 medications is muscle, not fat—unless you strength train.
Why this matters:
- Muscle is your metabolism. Less muscle = fewer calories burned at rest.
- Muscle gives your body shape and tone—not flab.
- Losing muscle can lead to long-term weight regain once you stop the medication.
At FIIT CULTURE, our workouts are specifically designed to help women preserve and build lean muscle while on GLP-1 medications. We combine resistance training, functional movement, and expert coaching so you get sustainable results.
