As physical therapists, we’re seeing more people on GLP-1 medications—and many aren’t being told how important exercise is during weight loss.

Research shows that 20–40% of weight lost on GLP-1s can come from muscle if strength training isn’t included.

We wrote a practical, easy-to-follow guide to help you:
✔ Preserve muscle
✔ Stay strong and energized
✔ Get better long-term results

Learn how to exercise safely while taking GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Wegovy. Protect muscle, boost strength, and improve long-term results.

Golf Tip Tuesday!
Power Starts at the Hips – Not the Hands

Golfers often compensate for poor hip mobility or stability by overusing their shoulders or lower back — leading to decreased power and increased risk of injury.

This week’s tip:
Focus on hip mobility and rotational strength. Not only will this improve your swing mechanics, but it also helps protect your lumbar spine and shoulders from overuse.

Hip Mobility Exercise:
Try this simple drill at home – “90/90 Hip Rotations.” Great for mobility, easy to do, and super effective for prepping the body pre-round or during your off days.

Tight hip flexors can limit mobility, affect posture, and strain the lower back. Stretching them helps improve movement efficiency and reduce injury risk.

Strong, mobile ankles are the unsung heroes of movement. Whether you’re squatting, climbing stairs, or walking on uneven ground, your ankles keep you stable and reduce the risk of injury.
