Arguably the most common method of tracking progress, weighing yourself is also one of the most useless. Body weight can change by the hour based on hydration level, salt intake, hormonal fluctuations, gut residue, etc., leaving you wildly frustrated as to why your program isn’t working. A much more useful mode of measuring progress, DEXA scan body composition uses low energy, quantitative vs. diagnostic x-ray to measure the proportions of fat, muscle, and bone in the body, and is considered as the gold standard, most thoroughly and scientifically validated method for body fat measurement. This means we can go beyond simply measuring weight loss and start focusing on FAT loss.
98% accurate; the most trusted and scientifically validated measurement of body fat, lean muscle, and bone mineral content. Far more precise and reliable than water weighing, Bod Pods, bio-impedance analysis and pinching folds of skin with calipers.
Establish a baseline and regularly track the effectiveness of your fitness and nutrition programs by knowing exactly where you’re losing fat and gaining muscle. A home scale only measures your relationship with gravity, which means nothing if you’re trying to lose fat while maintaining or gaining muscle.
Get a comprehensive report of your body composition so you can view your current progress. Going forward, repeat tests for comparative analysis enables you to track your progress over time. Your certified testing specialist offers a thorough explanation of your results and offers suggestions to help you achieve your health and fitness goals.

So, why DEXA?
How It Works
With a quick 5-10 minute, head-to-toe, fully clothed, whole body scan, our General Electric Healthcare scanner uses DEXA technology to print your body on a pixel-by-pixel basis and provide you with the most precise and reliable measurements on the market. Our advanced software analyzes your measurements and organizes your 50+ metrics into a personalized PDF report.
What We Measure
Live Lean Rx DEXA scans enable whole body and regional quantification of the bone, fat and muscle tissue in your body.
DEXA Scan Benefits
DEXA Scan as a body composition and body fat measurement tool ensures precision, accuracy, and comprehensiveness. Other than an MRI, DEXA is the only other scientifically validated and FDA approved, clinical-caliber method of quantifying total body composition. Pair the benefits of DEXA with the all-around Live Lean Rx perks and we think you’ll be pretty satisfied.
