Description:

GLP-1 medications are changing how many people approach weight loss, diabetes, and appetite regulation. But medication alone is rarely the whole solution.

In this episode of Beast Over Burden, Niki Sims and Andrew Jackson talk with Barbell Logic client Joshua Farrow about how GLP-1 medications reduced his food noise and helped him begin rebuilding his health. After being diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, Joshua combined GLP-1 treatment with strength training, cycling, and nutrition coaching to dramatically improve his blood markers, build muscle, and create a sustainable lifestyle.

The conversation explores how appetite regulation, ADHD, strength training, and metabolic health all intersect—and why dropping the idea that you "should" be able to do it alone can be the first step toward real progress.

Joshua also shares how coaching, consistency, and a shift from dieting for weight loss to eating for health helped him move from simply trying to lose weight to building long-term strength and performance.
