Why Weight Training is Non-Negotiable on GLP-1s
If you're using GLP-1 medications like Ozempic or Wegovy to support your fat loss journey, you're not alone—and you're likely seeing results. But here's something not enough people are talking about: weight training isn't just helpful while you're on GLP-1s, it's essential.
At Michael Lea Fitness in Redcliffe, we’ve seen it firsthand. Clients using GLP-1s experience rapid weight loss, but without strength training, they risk losing valuable lean muscle, not just fat. That lean muscle is your body’s metabolic engine. When you lose it, your metabolism slows, making it harder to keep the weight off long-term.
This is where personal training in Redcliffe becomes a game-changer.
We design workouts to help you build and preserve muscle, even when your appetite is low. Think smart resistance training, tailored to your level, and guided with proper technique, whether that’s in the studio, outdoors, or from the comfort of your home.
Here’s why it matters:
- Muscle burns more calories at rest, keeping your metabolism humming.
- It improves insulin sensitivity, helping your body manage blood sugar better.
- Stronger muscles = better energy, posture, and joint health.
- You’ll feel more confident, not just lighter. If you're serious about long-term results with GLP-1s, weight training isn't optional, it's your secret weapon.
Don’t settle for just being lighter. Let’s make you leaner, stronger, and more resilient.
