MindPump exposes the RAW TRUTH about health, fitness, nutrition and more... Hosts Sal Di Stefano, Adam Schafer & Justin Andrews pull back the curtain on the mythology, snake oil and pseudo-science that pervades the fitness industry and present science-backed solutions that result in increased muscular development and performance while simultaneously emphasizing health. No fitness institution or fitness "truth" is safe from their quick wit and over 40 years of combined experience in the fitness industry. Produced by Doug Egge.

One out of ten Americans is on a GLP-1, and that number keeps growing. These drugs work, but there's a catch: muscle loss. The guys explain that GLP-1s don't cause muscle loss. Eating far fewer calories does. Then they give you 5 steps to keep your muscle: eat high protein, take essential amino acids, take creatine, lift weights the right way, and don't let your fats get too low. Adam also shares what he learned from his own GLP-1 experiment.
