It's for anyone taking a GLP-1 medication like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, or Zepbound who wants to lose weight the smart way, without losing the muscle that keeps them strong. You don't need any background in nutrition or fitness to follow along.
Nope, and it's not meant to be. Think of this as a friendly, plain-English guide to the basics. It's for learning, not diagnosing or treating anything. Your doctor is always the right person to talk to about your medication and your health, and you should never change or stop a medication without checking with them first.
Not at all. Whether you're already taking one, still deciding, or just curious how they work, you'll get a solid, easy-to-follow foundation. And the muscle-protecting tips apply no matter how you're losing weight.
Absolutely. We start from zero. You'll learn simple moves you can do at home with just your body and a cheap resistance band, plus some friendly advice for shaking off gym nerves if you ever want to head there. A couple of short sessions a week is genuinely enough to matter.
There are five short lessons, each building on the one before: how GLP-1s work, why muscle loss sneaks in, how to nail your protein, strength training made simple, and how to hold onto your results. After that, you'll get to try it all out with a hands-on case study and an optional research activity.
The first is a case study about Maria, a made-up person on a GLP-1, where you apply what you've learned and get feedback from a AI chatbot (the activity works with ChatGPT, Claude, Grok, Kimi, Qwen, etc). The second lets you use AI research tools to explore the science a little deeper and pick up handy skills for researching any health topic down the road.
Usually not. The activities work with free tools like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity, or Qwen. A few advanced research features might need a paid plan, but we point you toward free options too.
Yes—everything is built around a fictional character, so you never have to share anything real about yourself. And if you want to explore how it all applies to you personally, we show you how to keep things anonymous to avoid having to upload or share any sensitive information.
