Abstract Recent literature shows thatGLP-1receptor agonists are highly effective for weight loss and improving metabolic and cardiovascular health, often surpassing the results of lifestyle interventions alone, such asexerciseand diet modification. However, long-term weight maintenance is more successful whenexerciseis included, as stoppingGLP-1therapy alone often leads to weight ...
GLP-1receptor agonists (e.g., semaglutide) and dual GLP-1/GIP receptor agonists (e.g., tirzepatide) are effective for reducing body weight and fat mass, though lean soft tissue loss comprised 26%-40% of weight loss in recent trials. This case series describes three patients (two female, one male; body mass index: 32.9-51.9 kg m −2) who prioritized lean soft tissue preservation ...

Regularexercisecan help you preserve muscle and bone density while losing weight onGLP-1medication. Learn about the best types and tips for success.
Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) have transformed the management of obesity, demonstrating significant efficacy in inducing weight loss and improving metabolic parameters. However, emerging clinical and paraclinical evidence suggests that these agents may also contribute to an unintended reduction in skeletal muscle mass, potentially exacerbating or precipitating ...
Recent studies have shown that pharmacologic weight loss with glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP-1RAs) and combination therapies is approaching magnitudes achieved with surgery. However, as more weight loss is achieved, there is concern for potential adverse effects on muscle quantity, composition, and function. This primer aims to address whether muscle-related changes associated ...
