The Truth About GLP-1s & Muscle Loss | SOLO

EP 264: Join my NEW community for Gen X women: ⁠https://www.skool.com/drtyna/about⁠⁠ In this episode, I'm breaking down the difference between lean mass loss and actual muscle loss, where the widely repeated “40% muscle loss” claim came from, and what the latest research really shows. I also dive into metabolic dysfunction, fatty infiltrated muscle, anabolic resistance, strength training, protein intake, and why muscle quality matters far more than most people realize.
