Six essential moves to protect muscle and bone on GLP-1 weight-loss meds
Glp-1 weight-loss meds can raise the risk of muscle and bone loss, so experts recommend a focused six-move home routine to preserve strength: goblet squat to chair, dumbbell Romanian deadlift, push-ups from the knees, seated resistance-band row, suitcase carry, and Pallof press. Perform 2–3 sets of roughly 6–12 reps for most moves (suitcase carry is about 1 minute per side). The workout can fit into a 50–60 minute weekly strength plan and should be undertaken with guidance from a physical therapist if starting fresh to ensure safe, effective practice.
