How Semaglutide Works
Semaglutide mimics the hormone GLP-1, helping regulate appetite, insulin, and blood sugar levels. It reduces hunger and slows digestion, leading to lower calorie intake and weight loss.
However, when calorie intake drops significantly, especially without adequate protein intake or resistance training, the body may break down both fat and muscle tissue.
Muscle is critical to metabolic health.
Why Muscle Loss Matters
Lean muscle mass helps:
- Maintain a healthy metabolic rate
- Improve insulin sensitivity
- Support strength and mobility
- Regulate blood sugar
- Protect long-term weight maintenance
When muscle mass decreases, metabolism slows, and weight regain becomes more likely. Sustainable weight loss should strengthen your body — not weaken it.
Why Muscle Loss Can Happen on GLP-1
Muscle loss may occur due to:
- Reduced protein intake from appetite suppression
- Lack of resistance training
- Rapid weight loss
- Hormone imbalances
- Underlying metabolic dysfunction
This is why a medically supervised, lab-based plan is so important. Weight loss should be intentional and strategic, not simply driven by appetite reduction
Introducing SculptFirm: Supporting Muscle While You Lose Fat
Our SculptFirm Therapy Series focuses on muscle toning and body definition through advanced EMS (electrical muscle stimulation) technology. EMS actively contracts and strengthens muscles, while cavitation supports fat breakdown.
SculptFirm is ideal for clients seeking to tighten, tone, and sculpt with consistent treatments—especially during active weight-loss phases.
When integrated into a personalized GLP-1 plan, SculptFirm helps:
- Stimulate and strengthen muscle
- Improve tone and definition
- Support lean mass retention
- Enhance overall body composition
The goal is not just to lose weight, but to lose fat while maintaining strength and metabolic integrity.
