So, does the drug itself make your body consume muscle or does it occurs because people tend not to be hungry? How much is a minimum amount of protein per day? And why do you say meat protein is what we need vs protein powder? Isn't protein, protein?
When losing weight rapidly the body often chooses to metabolize muscle and not just fat. High protein diets can improve muscle retention. Protein is protein but protein from whole foods and meats tends to have a more complete profile than vegetarian proteins and protein powders. Powders are supplements and should be used to supplement your diet as a general rule, so if your goal is 100 grams of protein and you only tend to eat 75 grams then having a 25 gram scoop can help get you there, but in general, its better to each a chicken breast for those extra 25 grams.
Great info. I would love my in-depth video on this. I’m 38 f with 36 bmi in the early stages of getting on ozempic or wegovy(blood work pending) I definitely don’t want to lose muscle mass and would actually like to increase my muscle mass since I’ve lost quite a bit since recovering from Achilles tendon rupture repair. I would love to see more videos that touch on this topic. Thanks. Subscribed for sure
Thanks @RoseMakesIt! Recovery from an achilles repair is a slow process. I recommend connecting with a strength physical therapist in your area or contacting our team at GoTherex for virtual services to help guide you. I would love to dive into more depth on this topic in the future but we are a bit backed up with services now and unable to get out enough social content. Look for proper guidance on how much you can load your achilles at the stage you are in your repair and then perform compound lifts that match that level of strain. hrs.osu.edu/-/media/files/wexnermedical/patient-care/healthcare-services/sports-medicine/education/medical-professionals/knee-ankle-and-foot/achilles-repair-protocol-2019.pdf?la=en&hash=69FC2CFD07F0677199BF20749A5A0C89DAA928C3
Great question, and it really depends on how often you were working out before taking a GLP-1. You want to maintain or increase that program by a bit. So if you worked out 1 day per week, now do 2 days. If you worked out 3+ days per week, just stick with that and see how it goes or increase it by 1 day. If you never worked out, try 2 days to start and then maybe increase to 3 days after 2-3 months. We recommend a minimun of 2 days for most clients and our average client works out 3 days per week and is active walking or doing less intense active rest exercises most other days of the week. Always best to make sure you speak with your personal doctor, physio, or trainer for specific advice for you.
New Subie here! I just started recording my content and how I’ve been losing weight and inches on ozempic (semaglutide) It def quiets the food noise. I like that! Great video 😊
You are half correct, you can't tell your body not to burn muscle, but fat and muscle do not burn at the same rate. The rate changes based upon various conditions, one of those conditions is your diet. There is plenty of research that supports high protein diets helping to prevent muscle loss while in a calorie deficit.
@@personaltraining nope. once your body has burned thru the stored glycogen it will go to the fat stores AND the muscle. You’re not correct about various conditions. Any excess protein will be stored as fat ….. same thing with excess carbs and excess fats. Your body doesn’t differentiate which fat it burns. It will burn visceral fat as well all at the same time. It’s just the way the body works. Please don’t lie.
@@nwr7932 You seem to have some good foundational knowledge, and to expand upon that I encourage you to do further research into the influence that age, sex, stress, disease, and even nutrition can have on energy balance and metabolism. Thanks for your comments and visiting our channel.

The sound quality.. the music.. I have no idea what your saying.
How many days we have to work out 🏋🏿

Thanks @TiaNicoleLifestyle! We are happy you are finding success as well!
0% Fage Greek Yogurt. Huge protein hit. Get it in yer!
That's a great tip! Thanks!
This is so stupid, you can’t tell your body not to burn muscle, it burns both fat and muscle at the same rate!
