• SERVICE™ GLP-1 Exercise Framework

Your exercise needs can change as your treatment changes.

GLP-1 medications can change more than your appetite and body weight. As your treatment progresses, your energy, strength, fitness, and exercise needs may change as well.

So how should your exercise program change?

In this two hours educational workshop, Patrick Service, MS, ACSM-EP, introduces the SERVICE™ GLP-1 Exercise Framework—a four-phase conceptual framework designed to help you understand how exercise considerations can evolve throughout your GLP-1 journey.

BUILD → PRESERVE → PREPARE → MAINTAIN

🟦 BUILD

Build appropriate exercise habits and confidence.

Learn how to begin or establish a sustainable exercise routine and develop confidence with movement and strength training.

↓

🟩 PRESERVE

Prioritize strength and muscle during weight loss.

Understand the role of resistance training and progressive exercise while your body weight is changing.

↓

🟨 PREPARE

Develop strategies for treatment transitions.

↓

🟧 MAINTAIN

Build sustainable habits for the long term.

WHY ATTEND?

Exercise guidance during GLP-1 treatment may not always address how exercise needs can change throughout treatment.  But your training needs at the start of therapy may look very different from your needs during dose escalation, tapering, or long-term maintenance.

A one-size-fits-all exercise plan may not address your changing needs as treatment progresses. Without the right adjustments, you may miss opportunities to preserve muscle, improve strength, and maintain your results over time.

In this two hours workshop, you’ll learn how the SERVICE™ GLP-1 Exercise Framework can help you think about exercise across different stages of GLP-1 treatment and adapt your approach as your needs change.

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN

During this interactive workshop, you’ll learn:

• Why your exercise program should evolve throughout GLP-1 treatment
• How resistance training can support muscle preservation during weight loss
• How to approach exercise when you’re new to strength training
• When and why your exercise program may need to change
• Exercise approaches that may be less appropriate as your needs change during weight loss
• How to transition from active weight loss toward long-term maintenance
• Practical strategies you can begin applying to your own exercise routine

You’ll also have an opportunity to ask questions and discuss how the concepts apply to your stage of treatment.

WHAT YOU'LL TAKE HOME

Every participant receives:

1. ✓ A comprehensive downloadable participant workbook.
2. ✓ Five supplemental handouts and five worksheets.
3. ✓ Live demonstrations of eight foundational movements.
4. ✓ Practical strategies for exercise planning, strength, physical function and sustainable habits.
5. ✓ Personal action plan and resources for continued learning
6. ✓ Access to the SERVICE™ GLP-1 Participant Resource Center
7. ✓ Downloadable educational resources and practical tools
8. ✓ Two-hour expert-led workshop
9. ✓ Q&A and discussion
10. ✓ $99 workshop fee credited toward our $275 Exercise Physiology Assessment

You’ll leave with a clearer understanding of:

What to do.
How exercise fits into your current stage of treatment.

Why it matters.
Why strength, muscle preservation, fitness, and physical function deserve attention during weight loss.

When to adjust.
How your exercise approach may need to evolve as treatment progresses.

How to continue.
Learn how to build exercise habits that can extend beyond active weight loss.

IS THIS WORKSHOP FOR YOU?

This workshop is designed for adults who are taking, starting, transitioning off, or maintaining after GLP-1 treatment and want to better understand how exercise can adapt throughout the process.

This workshop may be especially helpful if you:

• Are currently taking a GLP-1 medication
• Are just beginning GLP-1 treatment
• Want to learn how to exercise appropriately while losing weight
• Want to prioritize strength and muscle during weight loss
• Have noticed changes in your energy, appetite, or exercise tolerance
• Are unsure whether your current exercise program is appropriate
• Are preparing to taper off medication
• Have stopped taking medication and want to maintain your progress
• Want to develop sustainable exercise habits for the long term

Whether you’re at the beginning of treatment, actively losing weight, transitioning off medication, or focused on long-term maintenance, the SERVICE™ framework provides a way to think about how exercise can evolve with you.

WHAT THIS WORKSHOP IS NOT

IMPORTANT: This is an educational workshop—not individualized medical care, medication management, or an individualized exercise prescription. Individualized exercise assessment and programming are available separately through Exercise Physiology services.
