Episode notes
GLP blockers are powerful tools for weight loss, but many people are shocked when strength drops, workouts feel harder, and muscle seems to disappear along with the fat. In this episode, we break down why building muscle on GLP blockers is so difficult, what these drugs are doing inside the body, and why muscle loss is such a common side effect. We also cover the peptides that can help support muscle preservation, recovery, energy, and anabolic signaling while using GLP blockers, including growth hormone secretagogues, repair peptides, and metabolic support compounds. If you’re using GLP medications and want to protect your muscle, improve training performance, and avoid the skinny-fat trap, this episode gives you the science, strategy, and realistic expectations you need.
