I’ve just watched that, thanks @lovealongbath. Coincidentally I am posting from the bath, and equally coincidentally I did my first weights workout since October this afternoon. It was very interesting! He basically outlines all the positive benefits of semaglutide and tirpetazide, showing the ways in which it improves heart health, liver function, blood pressure, brain function, etc etc. He also has a fascinating section on exercise and muscle loss. Essentially, if you take either MJ or Ozempic, you will lose muscle, which can reduce your life expectancy. If you lose weight on the drugs without resistance exercise, you lose more weight (fat + muscle), but you have a really high chance of putting it back on. However, if you do resistance exercise, although you lose less overall weight (or lose it more slowly), you actually lose more fat. You turbo-charge fat loss though it might be less noticeable on the scales. You also maintain much more easily when you stop, because the muscle mass helps you to not regain.
However, what he doesn’t explain in this video is that he claims a lot of the benefits are only possible with micro-dosing. Not sure if he explains this anywhere else!
Anyway, leaving micro-dosing aside, he’s certainly given my newly minted weights regime a boost.
