    458 - Do Weight Loss Drugs Hurt Your Body Composition? Coaches Q&A w/ Much Much More

    BLACK FRIDAY SUPER SALE - GET NOTIFIED - https://www.digitalbarbell.com/join-our-email-list💪 In this episode, we’re tackling some of your most common fitness questions — from improving body composition on weight loss drugs to building a strong, defined upper back.Can you still achieve a better body composition if you use weight loss drugs? Yes — but only if you do it the same way you would on any diet: with progressive strength training and enough protein. The problem is, appetite suppression can lead to such a deep calorie deficit that muscle loss becomes a real concern. If you lose equal parts fat and muscle, your body composition doesn’t actually change — you’re just lighter.We also talk about how long it really takes to see muscle definition. Muscle only shows up once your body fat gets low enough — roughly 15% for men and 25% for women. You can see major changes in 8–12 weeks, and in a year, look completely different.Then we get into routines — morning and evening — and how to stop struggling with consistency. Plus, practical strategies for eating out without overdoing calories: go grilled instead of sautéed, choose lean protein, keep sauces in check, and aim for a solid protein-carb-veggie combo.We wrap up with the long-term goal of strength training once you’re not chasing PRs anymore — things like joint health, insulin sensitivity, maintaining muscle, and looking strong for life.And if you want that strong, defined upper back? Stick with the basics: deadlifts, rows, pull-ups or pulldowns, face pulls, and band pull-aparts — then keep getting stronger over time.🎧 Tune in for straight answers, practical advice, and a dose of perspective to help you train smarter and look the part.
