GLP-1 lifestyle support

GLP-1 medications like Semaglutide and Tirzepatide (such as Ozempic and the long-term weight management option Wegovy) can be a powerful tool for weight management. But pairing them with the right weight-loss exercise classes and support can make a real difference to your results and long-term health.

GLP-1 lifestyle support is part of the GP Exercise Referral Scheme program.

You do not need a GLP-1 prescription from your GP to participate, but to benefit from GLP-1 support, you must request a referral from your GP to join the scheme.

Why exercise matters alongside GLP-1 treatment

Protect your muscle

Maintaining muscle mass is crucial during weight loss, as shedding pounds can often lead to a decrease in muscle. Engaging in structured exercise is key to preserving the strength you need throughout this process.

Improve your heart health

Regular physical activity supports your cardiovascular system alongside your treatment.

Keep the weight off for good

Establishing habits today leads to improved results beyond medication. By focusing on behaviour change now, we can set the foundation for your long-term health in the future.
