About this episode

Chris discusses the impact of GLP-1 medications on weight loss and muscle mass for golfers.

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.
