Weight loss drugs like GLP-1 agonists (semaglutide, liraglutide) are everywhere right now. They’ve helped some people lose significant amounts of weight, but for athletes and active individuals, there’s an important catch: these drugs can also cause muscle loss.
Why that’s a problem
Muscle isn’t just about strength — it’s a key component of metabolism, stability, and injury prevention. Losing muscle means slower recovery, decreased performance, and a higher risk of getting hurt.
In our Fort Collins clinic, we’ve seen active people start GLP-1 therapy without a plan to protect their muscle mass. They lose weight quickly, but also notice reduced energy, slower running times, or less explosiveness on the field.
Why this matters in sports medicine
When your folate levels are low, your body can’t repair tissues as quickly. Injuries that should heal in weeks can take months. Muscle recovery slows, and chronic inflammation can creep in. For competitive athletes, that’s the difference between being game-ready and sitting on the sidelines.
A better game plan
If you’re considering GLP-1, you need a strategy that includes resistance training, proper protein intake, and possibly targeted therapies to support recovery and muscle preservation. That’s where we come in — combining sports medicine expertise with personalized care to ensure you don’t lose the strength you’ve worked hard to build.
Results that last
One local athlete came to us after several months on GLP-1. She’d lost weight but also noticed her vertical jump had dropped. By focusing on muscle restoration and joint health, we helped her regain her explosiveness while maintaining her new weight.
