Episode Description
<p dir="ltr">Are GLP-1s like Ozempic and Mounjaro the future of fat loss, or just another excuse to skip the hard work? In this episode of the Kris Gethin Podcast, I break down the truth behind the hype. These drugs were made for managing blood sugar in type 2 diabetics, but now they’re being abused as quick fixes by people who refuse to lift, eat real food, or build discipline.</p> <p dir="ltr"> </p> <p dir="ltr">I explain exactly how GLP-1s work, how they suppress appetite, regulate insulin, slow gastric emptying, and why that means absolutely nothing if you’re not strength training or hitting your protein targets. </p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">You’ll learn the science-backed risks: loss of lean muscle mass, slower metabolism, nutrient deficiencies, and long-term hormonal disruption. I also cover the hidden benefits no one’s talking about, visceral fat reduction, neuroprotection, and dopamine rewiring, and why those only matter if you’re treating the drug as a catalyst, not a crutch. If you’re using GLP-1s and not building real habits, you’re just renting results. This episode will show you how to make them work with your training, not instead of it. </p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">Listen up, this one’s essential.</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">I Also Discuss:</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">(00:01) Ozempic Isn’t Magic—It’s Metabolic Warfare<br> (03:38) Why GLP-1s Won’t Save You If You Don’t Train</p> <p dir="ltr">(05:07) The Muscle Mass Trap No One Warns You About</p> <p dir="ltr">(11:20) How GLP-1s Trick You Into Skipping the Work</p> <p dir="ltr">(17:09) The Price You’ll Pay If You Don’t Plan Life After the Drug</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">Thank You For our Sponsors:</p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">NAD + Cell Shield from Biostack Labs <a href="https://biostacklabs.com/kris">https://biostacklabs.com/kris</a> </p> <p dir="ltr">BiOptimizers - code KRIS10 for 10% off <a href="https://bioptimizers.com/">https://bioptimizers.com/</a> </p> <p><strong> </strong></p> <p dir="ltr">Find more from Kris:<br> <br></p> <p dir="ltr">Website: <a href="https://www.krisgethin.com/">https://www.krisgethin.com/</a> </p> <p dir="ltr">Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/krisgethin/">https://www.instagram.com/krisgethin/</a> </p> <p dir="ltr">Youtube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/krisgethin">https://www.youtube.com/krisgethin</a> </p> <p dir="ltr">2 Shred: <a href="https://www.unmatchedsupps.com/products/2shred?srsltid=AfmBOop1JyRYFWIrLJ_dfa-ljisBdgvNmX5ihZh1K3uprkc9V4ZbACGe"> https://www.unmatchedsupps.com/products/2shred</a></p> <p dir="ltr"> </p>
