Did you know? Exercise is important in maintaining bone density, which can help prevent osteoporosis. High-intensive activities like jump roping or running, and resistance training (muscle strengthening) exercises are the most beneficial for preserving bone mass.
Patients using GLP1 medications are at particular risk of losing muscle mass, which can lead to frailty, increased risk of injury, lower baseline metabolism, and other complications. As part of your treatment plan, Dr. Altepeter will help you identify a physical activity program that meets you where you are, and focuses on building strength over time.

If you find yourself eating when you are not physically hungry, try to find a non-eating activity to do instead. Dr. Altepeter can help you develop personalized strategies to help cope with your unique triggers for over-eating or mindless eating.
