Ep 225: GLP-1s and Your Golf Game: What the Prescription Doesn't Tell You

from The Golf Fitness Bomb Squad with Chris Finn · host Chris Finn, CEO P4S Golf

Chris breaks down one of the most talked-about medications in the country - and what nobody is telling golfers who are on it. GLP-1 drugs like Ozempic are delivering real weight loss results, but up to 40% of that weight loss comes directly from lean muscle mass - the same muscle that drives club head speed, powers rotation, and keeps you off the injury list. Chris walks through what the data actually shows, why it's possible to lose weight and get fatter at the same time, and exactly what to do about it if you want to protect your golf game while you're on these medications. If you or someone you play with is on a GLP-1 and nobody has talked to you about strength training, protein targets, or baseline testing - this episode is for you. In this episode: Why up to 40% of GLP-1 weight loss comes from muscle - not fat How to lose weight and actually get fatter at the same time The four movements that matter most when your energy and calories are limited Why protein intake is harder - and more important - on GLP-1s than most people realize How to track what you're actually losing so your golf game doesn't pay the price Claim Your FREE Home Assessment: https://go.par4success.com/podcast Follow Par4Success: Instagram: @par4success TikTok: @p4sgolf YouTube: @Par4Success Facebook: @P4SGolf
