I'm a fan of open bodybuilding, so I've been following the Ozempic usage trend for a while now. Given the findings on this study, I can see how it may become an essential drug on bodybuilders stacks. Hunger reduction + supraphysiological muscle gain from steroids and growth hormone - (heart) muscle reduction = win/win? Heart problems are one (of many) of the main problems these guys face, so I won't be surprised if Ozempic is used to kind of "balance" the effects of other drugs. | ||

Another potential synergy for bodybuilding is that these GLP1 drugs ought to help maintain insulin sensitivity in the face of supraphysiological doses of HGH. Specifically I have the impression that tirzepatide and retrarutide are more effective here than semaglutide, as they possess additional mechanisms of aiding glucose disposal. |
