New Faith-Based Wellness Movement Counters Muscle Loss From

Faith-based wellness coach Simbaa Akamaru, founder of the Gospel Fit Community, is raising awareness about the hidden dangers of rapid weight loss drugs like Ozempic. His message: fast weight loss can mean lost muscle, energy, and confidence-especially for women. Through faith-driven fitness, strength training, and culturally relevant nutrition, Simbaa helps people transform their bodies and lives-mind, body, and spirit.
Minneapolis, MN - Wellness coach and faith-based fitness leader Simbaa Akamaru, also known as Coach Simbaa, will officially launch the "Strength Over Skinny" campaign, a bold initiative designed to raise awareness about the overlooked risks of popular GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro.

Backed by his Gospel Fit Community, Akamaru is addressing a growing concern: while these medications promise rapid weight loss, they are quietly contributing to muscle depletion, fatigue, and loss of body tone-especially among women.

"Rapid weight loss without intentional strength training isn't a win," says Akamaru. "It's a warning. We're losing more than just pounds-we're losing power."

Akamaru, a licensed trainer and founder of a faith-centered fitness movement, says these effects are not just anecdotal. They're impacting a large number of people who feel weaker, not stronger, after drastic weight loss.

The Strength Over Skinny Campaign Will Offer:

*
Virtual and In-Person Training Plans focused on maintaining curves, strength, and definition

*
Soulful Nutrition Guidance rooted in cultural relevance and real-life accessibility

*
Faith-Based Wellness Tools to help people honor their bodies as temples

*
Workshops and Events starting June 19 to educate and empower community members

"I created this campaign because our people deserve more than quick fixes," says Akamaru. "They deserve transformation that lasts-physically, spiritually, and mentally."

Why It Matters

With GLP-1 medications dominating headlines, Coach Simbaa's holistic, strength-focused solution puts the power back in people's hands. His campaign encourages individuals to pair medical support with mindful movement, emphasizing that weight loss doesn't have to come at the cost of wellness.

For those using or considering medications like Ozempic, Akamaru offers a vital message:

"Don't trade your strength for a number on the scale."
