Is PTD's Mounjaro coaching right for you? A 4-minute pre-qualification.

GLP-1 medications such as Mounjaro, Ozempic and Wegovy can reduce body weight meaningfully — but clinical trials of GLP-1 medications show a meaningful share of weight lost can come from lean tissue without resistance training and adequate protein.[1][2] This guide explains who PTD's 1-on-1 in-home GLP-1 coaching fits, who it doesn't, and how the programme coordinates with the prescribing doctor.

The short answer

If you are an adult in Dubai or Abu Dhabi using Mounjaro, Ozempic or Wegovy under a doctor's prescription, and you want to keep — not lose — the muscle while the medication does its work, PTD's 1-on-1 in-home GLP-1 coaching is likely a fit. PTD is not a clinic. PTD does not prescribe. The programme is strength-first, protein-aware, and coordinated with your prescribing doctor.

Many kilos did you lose? So almost four in now one month. I lost eight to ten kilos. Twenty kilos. I have reduced thirty four kgs. Five to six percent fat, several kilos. I lost nineteen kilos. I lost almost thirty kilos. More than down six kgs. PTD is helping me, obviously. I cut the weight. Seventy eight right now. I started with seventy kgs, and we have been working out, and I am now fifty nine point nine kgs.

When we started, I was on hole number five on my weight training belt. I've now easily made it to hole number six and not far off getting to seven. So obviously the inches are coming off the waist. So just getting stronger. Twenty kilos. I feel more energetic. At fifty four years of age, I feel strong and fast. I was a heavy smoker. I lost around ten percent of my fat, and I gained another forty two percent muscle.

When we started to work ninety days ago, I was ninety one kilos with my height of one seven three. Today, I am now seventy two kilos. I lost nineteen kilos. I dropped by almost ten percent of total fat. I lost weight. I bulked in muscles. And just in nine sessions, it's just absolutely amazing. I was weighing somewhere around hundred and eighteen kgs. Now I am eighty four. I have reduced thirty four kgs over a period of four months.

Three months on, I've lost my belly fat, got a little bit of a three pack, and I've put on some nice real weight in my upper body. Twenty nearly twenty five kgs. Not missed one day. Follow the plan. Follow the instructions. Sometimes you think it doesn't gonna work, but at the end of every week, there's a result. I was ninety eight kgs. Last five weeks, I'm down six kgs. I'm down six percent body fat, and I feel absolutely amazing.

I started the program back in November. My energy levels are through the roof, and my body is really starting to take shape. The best shape — hard work, dedication, and some force behind you to motivate you. I already feel healthier, stronger, and younger. So thank you, coach Milos, and thank you, PTD. Also, a bit more confident in the gym. I've been working out with him for about a month, and I've already lost six percent fat, several kilos, getting in shape.

My energy has gone up. My mentality, my thinking, my sharpness, it's all very, very good. It's hard work, a lot of blood, sweat, and tears, but well worth it. At the age of forty eight, I never thought I'd be able to feel this good again. So thank you very much for PTD Fitness. I love my body. Finally, this morning, the first time in one year in the house since I had my baby, I can look in the mirror and I see something that I like.

I didn't have a big goal for losing weight or looking like a Barbie. I wanted to be healthy. I had lots of health problems — lower back pains, neck pains, headaches. So Milos helped me find my problems and my inactive muscles, and he helped me build the proper muscles to hold my body. I started the program and started strictly with the nutrition plan. Already four weeks later, I'm seeing results. The belly's gone down. Everything's gone smaller.

They're consistent. They're professional and kind. They're right in sport on how to help you improve. PTD, obviously, they're the best in the UAE. Feeling ready to conquer the day. Ready to take my shirt off at the beach. I am very happy to say that I have achieved a very important fitness target that I never thought it was going to be possible. So, yep, couldn't recommend PTD Fitness enough. A big shout out to PTD Fitness and their body transformation programme.

PRE-QUALIFICATION

Who PTD's GLP-1 coaching is for — and who it isn't.

This is a fit if

  • You are an adult on Mounjaro, Ozempic, or Wegovy under your doctor's prescription.
  • You want to keep lean muscle while the medication reduces body weight.
  • You are in Dubai or Abu Dhabi and want the coach to come to you.
  • You can commit to 2-3 strength sessions per week for 12 weeks.
  • You are willing to track protein intake (target around 1.6-2.2 g/kg body weight per day, adjusted with your doctor or dietitian).
  • You are open to your PTD coach coordinating with the doctor managing your prescription.

This is not a fit if

  • You are looking for someone to prescribe, supply, or replace a GLP-1 medication — PTD does none of those things.
  • Your doctor has not cleared you for resistance training.
  • You want medical advice on dosing, side-effect management, or whether to continue the medication.
  • You are looking for short-term cardio bootcamps rather than strength-led 1-on-1 coaching.
  • You cannot commit to 2-3 weekly sessions for at least 12 weeks.
HOW THE PROGRAMME WORKS

Four things that change when the client is on a GLP-1.

  1. 01

    Establish the starting point

    Body composition baseline, current medication and dose, recent appetite and energy pattern, and any cleared exercise limits from the prescribing doctor. Programming is built from that snapshot — not from a template.

  2. 02

    Build a plan a smaller appetite can sustain

    Appetite reduction is commonly reported during GLP-1 use. The coach designs strength-first sessions, protein-led nutrition with practical tactics (high-leverage meals, liquid protein, timing around the medication window), and conditioning volume that respects recovery instead of overriding it.

  3. 03

    Coordinate with the prescribing doctor

    With the client's consent, the PTD coach can share milestones — body-composition change, strength markers, recovery patterns — with the doctor managing the prescription. Medical decisions stay with the doctor. Training decisions adapt around them.

  4. 04

    Finish the GLP-1 phase with strength that holds

    By session 36, the body composition that has emerged is the one strength built — not the one rapid weight loss left behind. Posture, energy, and metabolic capacity that carry forward whether or not the medication does.

QUESTIONS, ANSWERED

Mounjaro pre-qualification — the honest answers.

  1. Can I train with PTD while on Mounjaro, Ozempic, or Wegovy?

    Yes, most people on a GLP-1 can perform structured resistance training. Programming is adjusted around appetite, energy and recovery, and PTD coordinates with the prescribing doctor managing the medication.

  2. Is PTD a clinic or pharmacy?

    No. PTD Fitness is a 1-on-1 in-home personal training service. PTD does not prescribe, supply, or replace any GLP-1 medication. Medical decisions stay with the prescribing physician.

  3. Does PTD recommend Mounjaro or other GLP-1s?

    No. PTD does not recommend, endorse, or counsel for or against any prescription medication. PTD provides exercise programming and 1-on-1 coaching that can run alongside a medication the client's doctor has already prescribed.

  4. Why does strength training matter on a GLP-1?

    Clinical trials of GLP-1 medications show a meaningful share of weight lost can come from lean tissue without resistance training and adequate protein, per Wilding et al. (NEJM 2021, STEP 1)[1] and Jastreboff et al. (NEJM 2022, SURMOUNT-1)[2]. Strength training and protein support are how lean mass is protected during the medication phase.

  5. What if my doctor recommends stopping the medication?

    The training continues. PTD's coach adapts the programme — slightly higher session calorie targets, adjusted volume, continued strength focus — so the strength foundation carries forward whether or not the medication does.

  6. How is the programme delivered?

    1-on-1, in-home. The PTD coach travels to the client's home, villa, building gym, hotel gym, or office across Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Same coach across the entire 12 weeks of the flagship programme.

  7. How much does PTD cost?

    AED 3,520 to AED 41,616 ex-VAT across 7 packages. The flagship 12-Week Body Transformation is 36 sessions at AED 12,276 ex-VAT (AED 341 per session) with 120-day validity. See all 7 packages →

  8. How fast does PTD respond after an enquiry?

    Within 1 business day. A PTD coordinator reviews the enquiry, asks any clarifying questions about goals, GLP-1 status, location and schedule, and proposes a matched coach for a free 15-minute consultation.

Your prescription is doing its job. PTD keeps the strength while the medication does its work.

Book a free 15-minute consultation. A PTD coordinator will match you with a coach who works alongside your prescribing doctor — typically within 1 business day.
