Building Strength While Using GLP-1s
Presented by: Beyond Health Losing weight on a GLP-1 is only part of the health equation. What happens to your muscle along the way? On this episode of Feel Better, Live Better, Kristi Fury sits down with Dr. Gary Bowman, chiropractor and founder of Propel Health and Human Performance, to discuss why maintaining muscle is so important while using GLP-1 medications. Dr. Bowman explains how muscle affects glucose metabolism and insulin sensitivity, why rapid weight loss without resistance training can contribute to muscle loss, and why strength becomes increasingly important as we age. They also break down practical ways to get started if you haven't exercised in years, including walking after meals, simple resistance exercises, continuous motion training and realistic strategies for people who spend most of the day sitting at a desk. You don't have to become an athlete or spend hours in the gym. The goal is to start where you are, prioritize protein, move consistently and give your body a reason to maintain muscle while losing weight.

Barry shares what patients might expect during treatment, how the vagus nerve plays a role in whole-body function, and why addressing the nervous system could enhance other therapies.

Presented by Beyond Health Is resting an injury really the best way to heal?

The conversation explores the role of inflammation, how athletes recover from injuries today, and why staying active can sometimes help the body repair itself more efficiently.
