Exercise transformation with training: went from barely able to walk a block to completing a 10K last weekend.
My fitness journey alongside GLP-1 therapy:
- Month 1-2: Walking 15 min/day
- Month 3-4: Walking 30-45 min, started bodyweight exercises
- Month 5-6: Joined a gym, started resistance training
- Month 7+: Running, lifting heavy, swimming for fun
The weight loss made movement possible. The movement made more weight loss possible. Virtuous cycle in action.
The figures, for anyone assembling their own picture. The boring version of this is the one that works, and the boring version is: measure a baseline, change one variable, wait, measure again under the same conditions. Nobody wants that answer and it is still the answer.
