GLP-1s for Athletes w/ Umo Callins

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2455627/fan_mail/new] Even elite athletes are on Ozempic - and how they fuel, train, and time their dose looks nothing like the standard GLP-1 advice.

They cover what actually changes when active people go on Ozempic, Wegovy, Zepbound, or Mounjaro — fueling around training, dose timing in the off-season, strength training non-negotiables, creatine, HMB, and protecting muscle mass when your appetite collapses.
