About the event

With access to GLP-1 medications on the rise, more adults are exploring medical weight loss options alongside their training, nutrition, and lifestyle habits. This seminar will provide a practical, evidence-based look at the clinical considerations of GLP-1 use for individuals who want to lose weight while continuing to prioritize strength, muscle, and long-term health.

Attendees will also have the opportunity to ask questions in a judgment-free environment and learn how to approach weight loss in a way that supports both short-term results and long-term success!
