The verdict
Fitness RX takes it — 76.7/100 to 66.3/100.
Fitness RX grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. Fitness RX (fitnessrx.com) is a GLP-1 weight-loss program that bundles medication with fitness and nutrition coaching across a three-phase plan.
We may earn a commission if you start care through some of these links, at no extra cost to you. It never moves the WeighScore, which is the weighted average of the six factors shown for every provider, and what we write about a provider is the same either way. See our disclosure.

Graded #50 · C
Strengths
- $119/mo all-in including medication, 1:1 physician consults, and unlimited messaging ($100-off-for-life intro promo)
- Both compounded (injectable + sublingual semaglutide/tirzepatide) and brand GLP-1 (Wegovy, Zepbound)
- Integrated fitness and nutrition/behavioral coaching (linked to the BodyFX brand)
- Publishes Terms, Privacy, and data-privacy policies; links to LegitScript verification
Where it loses points
- Promo-driven landing page; compounding pharmacy and legal entity not named
- Tirzepatide and brand pricing may differ from the advertised $119/mo plan
- LegitScript status links to a CAPTCHA-gated checker — not independently confirmed here
- Exact drug and dose are shown only after the intake quiz
Graded #191 · C
Strengths
- Flat monthly membership bundles the medication, telehealth visits, a 1:1 care coach and a licensed registered dietitian — one price, no hidden fees
- Same price every dose, no auto-renewal, cancel anytime; free shipping and no insurance needed (FSA eligible)
- Names a compounding pharmacy partner (Foothills Pharmacy) and states it services all 50 states
- Free, no-obligation online assessment before you pay anything
Where it loses points
- Shows a LegitScript 'approval' but links only a generic directory search, not a verifiable seal — we couldn't independently confirm it
- Promo-driven pricing with a countdown timer and 'price increases' urgency; the standing membership is $129 (sema) / $179 (tirz)
- A technology platform that coordinates care, not the medical provider; individual clinicians and a medical director aren't named on the site
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide only — no brand-name (Wegovy/Zepbound) options
- Compounded GLP-1s are not FDA-reviewed or approved — a different evidence and regulatory tier than brand-name
