Your medication was designed to make you lose weight. This was designed to make you love what's left.

Up to 40% of the weight you lose on GLP-1 medication isn't fat. It's muscle.
Published data from the STEP 1 and SURMOUNT-1 clinical trialsGLP-1 medications suppress your appetite, which often means you're not getting enough protein or fiber to maintain muscle mass. Without the right training and nutrition, your body breaks down the muscle you need most.
The fat goes. The muscle goes with it. What's left is the body the media calls "Ozempic body."
What if someone actually understood what GLP-1 is doing to your body — and built a program around it?
Every approach treats you like a normal person. But you're NOT in a normal metabolic state.
Walking preserves cardio, not muscle. GLP-1 medication is eating your muscle and walking won't stop it. Prescribing walks for muscle loss is a Band-Aid on a broken bone.
These programs burn calories. You need to build and preserve muscle. Cardio on a GLP-1 with suppressed protein intake accelerates the very muscle loss you're trying to prevent.
None of them understand your medication's effects on recovery, your energy fluctuations, or your appetite constraints. Random videos aren't a system. Your body on GLP-1 needs a system.
Three things no other program has — because no other program was built for GLP-1 users from day one.
GLP-1 medications change everything about how your body responds to exercise — your energy, your recovery, your capacity. Some days you feel strong. Other days, nausea and fatigue make a normal workout impossible.
The Forged Protocol is designed to help you through all of it. Every workout accounts for the unique challenges of training on medication — so you build muscle consistently, no matter how you feel that day.
No more canceling plans because "today is a bad day." Your program is built to work with your body, not against it.
We make sure you're getting what your body actually needs — protein and fiber — to maintain muscle mass and support recovery.
Your nutrition plan prioritizes high-quality protein to protect and build lean muscle, plus fiber to support digestion and keep you feeling your best on medication. No restrictive diets. Just smart, strategic eating.
Imagine actually finishing dinner and knowing you gave your body exactly what it needed.
Standard programs prescribe 15-25 sets per muscle group per week. That volume doesn't account for how GLP-1 medications affect your recovery.
The Forged Protocol uses fewer sets at strategically heavier loads — maximum muscle-preservation stimulus with minimum systemic fatigue.
Your friends will ask how many hours you spend in the gym. The answer is less than two a week.

"I watched client after client come to me after losing weight on GLP-1 medication — and hate what they saw in the mirror. They did everything right. The scale moved. But the body didn't match the picture in their head. That's why I built The Forged Protocol."
Josh takes a physiological approach to training — programming based on how the body actually works, not trends. It's the same methodology trusted by professional athletes, executives, and high-performers.
"GLP-1 medications change everything about how your body responds to training. The Forged Protocol accounts for every one of those changes." — Josh Cuthbert

"After two kids, I'd completely lost my pre-baby body. The weight came off with Ozempic but I still looked soft and deflated — nothing like the strong, toned mom I wanted to be. Three months into the Forged Protocol and I got my pre-baby body back and then some. My arms have definition I've never had, even before kids."

"I lost 35 lbs on Wegovy and everyone said I looked great. But I didn't feel great — I felt weak, tired, and my body just didn't look right. It wasn't until I started the Forged Protocol and got in the gym with a real plan that everything clicked. The weight loss finally matched how I feel. I look in the mirror now and actually recognize the person looking back."

"I've always eaten clean but wanted to drop a few stubborn pounds. My doctor put me on a low-dose GLP-1 and the weight came off fast — but so did my muscle. I combined the medication with the Forged Protocol and I'm more shredded than I've ever been. The GLP-1-specific programming made all the difference."

"My doctor said 'just walk more.' I lost 40 lbs and my arms looked like they belonged to someone 20 years older. Three months on the Forged Protocol and I finally have muscle definition. My husband grabbed my arm the other day and said 'what are you doing? You look incredible.' I cried happy tears for the first time in a year."

"The first two weeks were tough — I wasn't sure this would work with my appetite on Ozempic. But by week 3 the GLP-1-specific programming clicked and I stopped dreading workouts. Four months in and I'm doing 4 sessions a week. I wish the app had more recipe variety, but the training alone changed my body."

"Three months in and my arms have actual shape. I wore a sleeveless dress to my sister's wedding and didn't think twice. My friends keep asking what I'm doing. Best money I've ever spent on my health."

"I was skeptical — another fitness program? But this one actually understood my body on Zepbound. The app tells me exactly what to do each day based on how my body responds to medication. No guessing. No Googling. Just open the app and go. 5 months in and I've completely recomposed."
