GLP-1s like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro work — until you stop. Most of the weight comes back, and a quarter of what was lost was muscle. Level is the AI strength coach that protects what you've earned, on the medication and after it.

Strength training is the only proven way to preserve lean mass during rapid weight loss. Level builds the program around it.
Studies show two-thirds of weight returns within a year of stopping a GLP-1. The maintenance plan starts on day one — not after rebound.
Your AI coach asks about appetite, energy, and side effects, and programs around them. No human trainer at this price tier does that.

Everything You Need
Studies on GLP-1 weight loss show up to 25-40% of pounds lost can come from lean mass. Level programs progressive resistance training to fight that.
Tell your coach you're on or coming off a GLP-1 and the plan adapts: lower-volume early sessions, slower progressions, RPE-based effort, and honest energy management.
Appetite suppression makes hitting protein hard. Level sets a high-protein floor scaled to your bodyweight and goal so muscle has what it needs to stay.
Most weight regain happens in the first year after stopping. Level becomes the habit, the coach, and the strength program that holds the line.
Weight is a noisy signal on a GLP-1. Level tracks strength gains, training consistency, and protein hits — the metrics that prove muscle is staying.
GLP-1 days vary. Some workouts will feel hard. Level adjusts volume, swaps movements, and reschedules — without you starting over from scratch.

Common Questions
Yes — and the research is unusually clear about it. Trials of semaglutide and tirzepatide show that 25-40% of total weight lost can come from lean tissue, including muscle. Resistance training during the weight-loss phase is the most reliable way to bias loss toward fat. Level programs progressive strength training calibrated to your fitness level so you can lift safely even on lower-appetite days.
That's the angle Level is built for. The largest published GLP-1 trials show participants regain about two-thirds of the weight within a year of stopping. The mechanism is well-understood: appetite returns, lean mass is reduced, and resting metabolism drops. Level keeps the strength habit going so muscle is preserved and the program flexes from a deficit to a maintenance phase automatically when you taper.
Tell your coach. Level adjusts session volume, lets you swap movements, and uses RPE (rate of perceived exertion) so you don't have to hit hard numbers on a low-energy day. Two short, well-executed sessions per week is enough to preserve the majority of muscle — and that's the floor we'll hold to.
No. Level is a fitness and nutrition coaching app — not a medical app, and not a substitute for your doctor or pharmacist. Always discuss medication, dosing, and any taper plan with the clinician who prescribed it. We focus on the training and protein targets that the published research supports.
Most clinical guidance lands around 1.2-1.6g per kg of bodyweight per day to preserve muscle in a deficit, with the higher end recommended on a GLP-1 because appetite suppression makes it easy to under-eat. Level calculates your daily target, tracks intake in-app, and your coach will surface it when you're consistently low.
