GLP-1 medications like Mounjaro, Ozempic, and Wegovy can lead to rapid weight loss — but without the right strength training and nutrition, up to 40% of that weight lost can come from muscle, not fat.

At GLPStrong, we’re here to change that.

Our app is built to help you protect your strength, build lean muscle, and maintain long-term health while thriving on your GLP-1 journey.

✅ Maintain critical lean muscle mass during weight loss
✅ Boost energy, balance, and metabolism for long-term success
✅ Support your body’s recovery and joint health
✅ Improve body composition (lose more fat, keep muscle)
✅ Optimize your results with smart, GLP-1 specific nutrition (especially protein!)

GLP-1 receptor agonists like Mounjaro and Ozempic work by slowing digestion, reducing appetite, and improving blood sugar control.

This often leads to significant weight loss — which is great for health — but it also carries a hidden risk: losing muscle along with fat.

Studies show that during rapid weight loss, 20–40% of the weight lost may be lean body mass — meaning critical muscle strength is lost if it’s not actively protected.

Why does this matter?

• Muscle is essential for metabolism, strength, balance, and injury prevention.
   
• Muscle loss can make you feel weaker, lower your energy levels, and even slow your progress over time.
   

The solution?

• Strength-focused workouts: By lifting weights or doing bodyweight resistance training, you give your body the signal to preserve and rebuild muscle — even while losing fat.
   
• Prioritizing protein intake: Protein provides the essential building blocks (amino acids) your body needs to repair and protect muscle while you’re in a calorie deficit.
   

Protein and Hydration Are Key

On GLP-1 therapies, appetite is often much lower.
This means:

• It's easier to under-eat protein without realizing it.
   
• Dehydration can sneak up faster because of slower digestion and reduced thirst cues.
   

At GLPStrong, we focus on:

• Setting daily protein goals (e.g., 80–120g depending on your needs)
   
• Building in hydration tracking
   
• Offering simple meal guidance to help you meet your needs without overwhelming your appetite
   

This isn’t about extreme diets — it’s about small, smart adjustments that keep you strong and feeling good throughout your GLP-1 journey.

By protecting your muscle, you protect your:

• Metabolism
   
• Mobility
   
• Confidence
   
• Ability to keep the weight off permanently
   

GLPStrong is more than workouts — it’s your complete support system to help you stay strong, healthy, and thriving on your GLP-1 journey.
