Lose fat, not muscle.
GLP-1 medication is effective. But up to 40% of the weight you're losing could be muscle. Strength training changes that equation.

The Challenge
GLP-1 medications work. But there's a trade-off.
Semaglutide and tirzepatide are game-changers for weight loss. But research shows your body doesn't just burn fat. It burns muscle too.
Less muscle means a slower metabolism, less strength for daily life, and a higher risk of regaining weight after you stop the medication.
Strength training is the evidence-based solution. At a private studio in 1050 Vienna, I help GLP-1 users preserve muscle mass while losing fat, building habits that support long-term results after treatment.

What clients say
Real results from real people
“In the first few weeks, it honestly felt like a chore. But now I genuinely look forward to it. I like having another way to measure progress and success. Hitting a personal best on a lift is incredibly rewarding. It just feels really good.”
“I'm starting to feel as strong on the outside as I feel on the inside. Like many of us who have struggled with our weight, I've been through a lot. This is such a gift.”
“Mounjaro + weight training truly changed my life. I lost the excess weight and my chronic health issues, and gained muscle, energy, and a level of mobility I've never had before. I'm now in my early 40s and living in the body I always dreamed of.”
