The interesting part about this is this is a challenge for all clients that were pursuing fat loss, even if you weren't taking one of these drugs. The only thing that this has really changed, at least for me, from my perspective as a trainer who's helped a bunch of people try and lose weight, is it just guarantees they're not going to eat a lot.
One of the challenges when you were helping a client lose with weight loss was getting them to adhere to the diet consistently, consistently enough that they were in a caloric deficit day in and day out so that their body would then basically metabolize fat and lose body fat, right? Well, that's the goal. Right, that would be the goal.

But that is challenging enough as it is, and you'd have clients that would be good for a while, then overeat, and then they'd hit plateaus. But with Ozempic, Monjaro, all these GLP-1s, getting the client to restrict from calories is not difficult whatsoever.

But the same challenge is presented as the one that I would have with a client who actually did adhere to eating low calorie without the drug. So it's very similar.

It did feel like that was... pretty much everybody that they would inevitably hit this plateau where they would need a reverse diet. Did not feel like that way. I felt that way with our experience. Unless you had a very small goal, like maybe someone who only needed to lose, say, 20 pounds.

Yeah, people that had 50-plus pounds, most all of them that we dealt with, eventually would hit a plateau and then would end up having to reverse diet. But I mean, bringing this up, the reason why I brought that point up to start this is because a lot of the...

content that you see online right now is it's either it's one extreme or the other it's either super pro like it fixes everything yeah it fixes everything it's it's going to change it's for everybody it's and so uh you have that and then you have the other side which is all the fear mongering that's going on around it like oh it loses all this muscle and it's like no it doesn't it doesn't lose muscle at all it's the exact same thing that would happen to a client

And let's take the drug out of it completely. If you take two people, one of them is taking Ozempic, the other one is not taking it, but they're both the same body type, same sex, same everything, identical. And they both cut their calories to 900 calories a day. they will lose the same amount of muscle.
