Would you agree that as your muscles grow it gets way easier to get them pumped?
Big Pharma has become drug dealers😊
You know the real science about to take place when he cracks out the MSPaint 🤣
Not fat, not hairy, not masculine. Fit.
waste of time
This survey failed. The bodies are almost the same in men's choice 1, 3, 4.
Fatto Menno 🤣
Menno says cut with Ozempic. Got it.
Does it slows metabolism!?
The top three in Men's Top 8 is right. The order is not relevant.
Your were wrong at the beginning of the vid: my sense of dread and cognitive dissonance happened Immediately after you said that, not at the end of the video.
Holy crap my mind is blown....and also relieved because I've always struggled with this at maximal weights....just brilliant information 🤘
This is no magic pill, when you loose wight in the traditional sense through excercise and diet, throught the journey you will loose 25% muscle and 75% body fat, which is good. This "magic pill" is the exact opposite. So one looses 75% muscle tissue and only 25% body fat. This is terrible, not only is it harder to gain muscle back the presumed weight loss isnt a healthy weight loss. Its a mojorty of muscle. There is no magic pill.
So basically, eat less. If you can keep your mouth shut and not stuffing junk in your face, then you don't need ozempic.
Damn, the way my friends described it, it's too good to be true. I think one of them puked at his own dinner =/...Twice. I noticed he had A TON of muscle loss at the shoulders =/. I'm 24% bodyfat, but I don't think I'd ever consider taking this, seems like a waste of money. It is super expensive, $900 per month in Ontario Canada. It doesn't seem to be working either...I think the lifestyle change is the biggest factor, but this gives them an excuse for status quo.
The only argument I can come up with, is the following; while making a lifestyle change, less suffering from hunger, may increase the success rate. Then once the new pattern of behavior has been adopted and the desired weight loss attained, going off the the GLP-1 will not result in regression with the same frequency. This would be similar to nicotine patch, etc. However, the suffering may be necessary to condition the brain and personality of the individuals to never want to go through it again thus creating a more powerful feedback mechanism. However, given the relapse frequency is incredibly high, with all addicts, it is very unlikely that any individual who requires medical intervention, for weight loss, will actually keep the weight off.
Yeah actually we have no idea why it affects appetite, although it's almost certainly far more complicated than you state. Mounting evidence suggests it's a general drive inhibitor, i.e., it's more psychological than anything else.
Hahaa. Most effective drug for weight loss... 10% with half of the year of bodyfat. Are you kidding me? Most effective weight lose drug is doing meth or heroin 🤣 when side efects are not important. I think it was Peter Attia who said, nothing helps you lose weight like a good heroin addiction :D
The magic pill has existed forever… excersize and dont eat like a pig.. pretty simple
And in modern fashion there's all this tight styles which look awful whether the man/woman have perfect or crap figures. No sense of dress style exists anymore in the age of cheap fashion and overdone sex imagined promotion with it.Add in the tasteless overdone tattooing and the body beautiful is a joke! Weird beards and whackho hairstyles! Simplicity ? It is like art. At the end of the great age of the Renaissance it declined into what phase is described as the Mannerist Period. (Everything was overdone!)
I had lost 97kg through lifestyle changes before going on Ozempic six months ago. So far I've lost another 13kg. Side effects such as stomach cramps and nausea were prevalent in the first 4-6 weeks, at first relatively strong the day after taking a dose, but then they disappeared. The biggest change I would say is that my desire to snack has almost entirely disappeared.
I'm extremely curvy. My measurements at age 38 are 35-24-35, WHR: .69. I wiegh 109 at 5'5. I'm genetically blessed. I'm totally natural, despite people my whole life questioning if I had plastic surgery and eating disorders. My parents had body measurements that were extraordinary, too. They instilled a healthy lifestyle value into my life since i was born. My dad used to train with the seals and was in the top 1 percent in fit standards. My mom had model proportions and millionaire men stalkers. Even in thier 60s my mom only wieghs 115 lbs, and my dad can still squat 300 lbs.
Excellent information - my SIL is on injections and has tried every fad diet of course sigh
What about archer push-ups?
If you stop the drug your future body composition will likely be even worse for those who don't do weight training because you will not gain back the lost lean mass. That's one major negative effect I would add to your list
Nope it's even easier to regain muscle mass if you've "lost it" because the cells don't go anywhere. Muscle memory is real and it doesn't just apply to bodybuilders
@@blink182bfsftw this applies only if you do weight training and the average ozempic user certainly doesn't
I micro dosed it, NO SIDE effects, work out 6 days a week and lost the weight slowly over 3 months. It helped me reset my cravings on the weekends and reminded me what I need and don’t need. My goal continues to be gain massive muscle to offset my older metabolism.
How low is “micro”?
Menno, White et al. demonstrated that GLP/GLP-1 use for weight loss *in adjunct* to supervised diet (in White et al, it was a 500 calories deficit per day) outperformed supervised diet alone. Why was this not mentioned in your video? It’s only a “miracle drug” insofar as someone is using it in adjunct with supervised diet interventions. Also can you provide a citation of #5. Lastly, you claim that this drug used unsustainably is better for bodybuilders? I would request a citation for this as well, as I’m not familiar with any research done with these drugs and bodybuilders Thank you,
Women lie. Never believe their words, only believe their actions. As you said here, they're having more sex with muscular men. That's obviously what they're more attracted to. I'd like to see a study that measured brain activity and didn't rely on answers.
Great video on an important topic.
Im lost on this, im trying to get to 6 sets of 12 on bench press but most I can do is 11 with a 3 to 4 second eccentric, on the sixth set it will go down to 8 reps, but if i rest for 45 seconds to a minute i can do three more. Is there a difference between muscle fatigue and muscle failure, how are they related, I can easily do three more sets of 8 in the same manner but cannot reach my goal of 12 reps. I get a different fatigue when doing leg press, intense burning and if try to do another rep it begins to cramp my legs but never a full on cramp. When doing curls Ive gotten to where I lift with both arms to try to do an eccentric and the weight just drops, absolutely no muscle contraction. What am I missing ?
Menno, did you see any of the reports of what the actual weight that is loss ?? 1/3rd is from fat, 1/3rd is from bone and 1/3rd is from muscle... this doesn't seem like a good drug to take if you want to lose a few pounds, this seems like something only the morbidly obese would want to take
Put it in the water supply. Make the frogs shredded.
Obesity is a chronic disease which will usually need a life long treatment, so yes you are supossed to use some kind of treatment for the rest of your life and so far a GLP1 analog is one of the best alternatives
If regular people can use semaglutide for weight loss, then it should be ok for body builders. Meat heads may be an even better use case, because they'll use it, hopefully, for just a short time. I wonder if semaglutide will usher in yet another body building influencer wave where they are at 5% body fat? Or maybe there will be less of a need for weight lifting influencers, because now anyone, barring side effects, can somewhat easily drop weight.
really informative video
i`m curious if lets say you eat the amount of protein you should, if that would counteract the lean body loss
Should help but you still need to keep the calories up out of inadvertent starvation territory.
@Sam_Saraguy the problem is based on this and many other videos, that these drugs slow down diggestion, so if you "force feed" yourself 180g protein 180g of carbs, you would probably be full throughout the day, what impact would that have of protein synthesis
youre telling me that taking this pill increases insulin sectretion and 40% of weight lost is muscle mass? Sounds like a good way to stress your organs with muscle catabolism along with increased insulin. Yikes!
Men always underestimate glutes. Story as old as time
Addendum: if this video sounds overly negative, note that there is direct research showing that weight loss aids reduce self-efficacy during dieting. Basically, weight loss supplements make people focus more on the drugs and less on their diet. The people most drawn to these types of drugs are the least likely to make sustainable lifestyle changes in the process, in my coaching experience. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4182347/

I’m just going to keep eating well and building muscle knowing that my body will gradually fix itself as I maintain this healthy balance over the course of my life. Letting go of the idea of short term results has made my whole journey so much more productive, along with the massively peaceful inner certainty that I will get where I want without needing to focus on it all so darn much.
you say at the end "if you are going to change your lifestyle then why do you *need* the drugs in the first place" but i think that's a *very* narrow minded view, the point would be to make the transition easier. its not about *need* its about making it easier for people to simply start. having a boost to your fitness journey at the beginning when it is ostensibly the hardest (for people who are morbidly obese and have difficulty walking, which would be the primary target of this drug). its much easier to make change when your joints have 100lb less weight on them, since moving your body is required to lose weight.
This is true and generally I agree, but there is an argument to be made that going through the hardest part of the process is necessary to create a sustained change. If you know that you can always go back on the drug, theres no real incentive to change for most people. That said, we have a major obesity problem and this drug makes sense for people who would never have had the will to start in the first place. At least they have a chance now. But, IMO, I think people should make a serious attempt to push through the beginning of their lifestyle change using fundamental principles of diet and exercise, not fad diets.
Taking ozympic is like cutting off your leg to lose weight. It works, but at what cost…
No it isn't wtf. It's like keeping unhealthy eating habits with some side effects to lose weight. You can't compare nausea to cutting off a leg
@@atherosclerosisheo3379 or loss of up to 40% of your lean muscle mass, destroying your metabolism and your health.
Facts 📠
So from what I understand, I should just do Clen? 😂
You have to at least be able to hold them in the air for more than 10 seconds. Thats all im gonna say. Trust me. According to that standard, these women have darn near perfect bodies. Heck, compared to most ugly creatures today, men still want the hour glass beauties of the 1950s and 60s. We would all still die to be with Marilyn Monroe
Thank you for taking the moment to share this video. Very relevant and answered both of mine and my wife’s questions about GLP-1. Thank you and have an awesome day brother!
I’m taking ozempic, I have 0 side effects at this point. Where I live it costs about 100 euros per month and I’m planning to be taking it forever, or a better medicine as they become available. I’ve been lifting for 10 years, done many diets, etc., etc. This medicine is a game changer and I don’t think you did it enough justice in this video honestly
Sounds like you’re getting the best use of these medications. I’m happy for your success.
@@frightfactoryYTthese drugs will be even better in 10 years
if uve been lifting for 10 years didnt you learn to control hunger by now? i fail to see the benefit unless you're really preping for a show and semaglutides make it easier on you mentally
I follow Dr Tyna Moore and she hypothesizes that our levels of natural GLP1 deteriorate with age. So yeah, struggling with hunger is an uphill battle and the glp1’s are one tool in an arsenal.
I have also heard there's significant psychological side effects like severe depression, and anecdotal stories of pancreatitis. Maybe the brain doesn't like being told it's artificially not hungry? The drug is powerful to save diabetic lives after all, but many think it's completely benign. Either way the lifestyle habits have to get developed eventually for people wanting fat loss.
Calorie restriction itself at some point might make you lethargic and less motivated to do things, not much of a suprise here
@@kacperpasternak3075 I believe there might be some unique effect Ozempic has regarding the psychological effects, such as messing with the leptin-ghrelin feedback loop, and thereby having an effect on the brain. I have dieted pretty hard a few times but wouldn't say it resulted in any kind of clinical depression (after having seen my brother deal with depression), merely a feeling a bit more tired. This is something that might become more evident with time.
I lost the same 40-50 pounds 3 or 4 times in my life. I started wegovy after hitting 260 a year and a half ago. Got down to 200. The plan was to take it the rest of my life but my insurance wont cover it now. Back up to 218 but I’m hitting the gym and trying to eat well.
Keep it up brother, just stick to it 👍
so if you take ozempic and work out to save muscle mass and get lean ? seems like an okay option for a cut phase
Theoretically, as long as you're hitting your nutrition macros, that should be true. The problem menno mentions is that its difficult to consume 200g protein while on these drugs.
I would say that is a very bad idea... from the weight loss 1/3 comes from fat, 1/3 comes from muscle and 1/3 comes from bone .... so yeah the drug causes you to lose "weight" but its not all fat, its just as equally muscle and bone ... this is a bad idea to take unless you are morbidly obese. but for someone who is just overweight, I would suggest avoiding it and do it the old fashion way of changing diet and moving more
@@adminintellidm6806would this still be the case if you’re hitting healthy protein macros?
@@thatf_inguy8220 nobody needs 200g of protein unless you're on roids
@@adminintellidm6806 not sure where you got that statistic. the decrease in bone density (and everything else) comes from undernoursihment. the deficiencies that exist are not equal and depends completely on diet and supplementation
Very, very few women are too thin. There are millions of obese women who die of heart disease yearly.
