EP743 - The Top Mistakes People Make When Taking a GLP-1 Medication


Listen Later

In this episode of The Brad Jensen Show, Craig and I break down the top five mistakes people are making while on GLP 1 medications.

This episode is a spinoff from the masterclass I taught earlier this month, but we go much deeper here. We unpack not just what the mistakes are, but why they are happening and how to fix them.

GLP 1s can be powerful tools. But they are not magic. And if you do not approach them with intention, structure, and a long term strategy, you can easily create bigger problems down the road.

Craig shares his firsthand experience being on a GLP 1 and gives honest insight into mistakes he now realizes he made along the way. That perspective alone makes this episode incredibly valuable.

Here's what we cover:

  • The biggest nutrition mistake people make on GLP 1s and why low appetite does not mean low responsibility
  • Why muscle loss is a very real risk and how to protect your metabolism
  • The training errors that sabotage long term results
  • The psychological trap of relying on the medication instead of building identity based habits
  • Why most people have no exit strategy and what happens when they come off

We also talk about sustainability, protein targets, resistance training, biofeedback, mindset shifts, and why GLP 1s should enhance your discipline, not replace it.

If you are currently on a GLP 1, considering one, or coaching clients who are, this is a must listen.

Our goal is simple:

Use the tool intelligently. Build the habits permanently. Keep the results long term.

As always, if this episode helped you, share it with someone who needs to hear it and tag us on Instagram with your biggest takeaway.
