You're on
the list.

Thirty spots. You're in line for one.
When the cohort opens, you hear first.

Three numbers predict almost everything about how a GLP-1 user will look and function at the end of their protocol. Most people never track any of them.

01
ALMI
Appendicular Lean Mass Index

The ratio of arm and leg muscle mass to height squared. It's the single best marker of structural muscle status, and the one GLP-1 drugs most directly threaten. A six-month course can drop your ALMI by a full point. Most people wouldn't know.

Get it from: DEXA scan. Target: ≥7.0 (men) / ≥5.5 (women) kg/m²
02
Grip Strength
Dominant-hand dynamometry

The most underrated biomarker in medicine. Grip doesn't just measure your hands. It indexes total-body muscle function, tendon integrity, and neurological drive. A 5% decline on protocol is a signal the intervention isn't working. A 10% decline is a red flag.

Get it from: $20 hand dynamometer. Target: ≥35 kg (men) / ≥20 kg (women)
03
HRV
Heart Rate Variability

A proxy for recovery capacity and metabolic resilience. Low HRV on GLP-1 is often a sign you're in a catabolic spiral, not just running a caloric deficit. The protocol uses your HRV trend to calibrate training load week-by-week. No guessing.

Get it from: Oura, Garmin, or Apple Watch. Watch for a declining baseline.
