Our
New Hologic Discovery A Model DXA Scanner is equipped with the
State of the Art Software module that
distinguishes lean mass, bone and fat and calculates your
total body composition. For optimal health, the average body
fat should be about 16% for males and 21% for females. DXA Body Composition scanning is a very accurate method of body composition
analysis and is now the Gold Standard for most research
applications. Followup scans allow for easy
measurement of your progress during
your Weight Loss/Strength Training/Nutrition program. We normally do a Baseline Scan and followup scans after 16 Sessions and then
at 32 Sessions and then twice a year thereafter if you are
enrolled in our
Hi-Lo Strength Training/Nutrition
Program!!
All Staff Members are Certified DXA Operators of our
Hologic Discovery A Scanner.
The scan takes about
3 minutes and gives off about 1/10th the radiation
of a Standard Chest Xray. There is a color
analysis which shows fat in yellow, muscle in red
and bone in blue. The software can give
detailed evaluations about specific body parts such
as the chest, shoulders or thighs and follow your
progress!!! Followup scans can show the yellow
fading away and the red growing!!
DXA Body Composition is a
research level tool and can be used to help
set goals for weight loss and gaining of
muscle. You can watch the yellow disappear
and the red increase!! We use
the Subtotal measurement as it is difficult
to change the composition of the head. This
lady has a body fat % of 37.7%, too high for
her age.
This is an example of
a 41 Year Old male with 4 scans over a 3 month period when
his body fat decreased from 31.8% to 21.2% showing
the yellow disappearing!!
The Scanner Software can
compare scans and produce tables, graphs and
images which
show the progressive changes in body
composition. At the start he was in the 84th
percentile compared to young men and at the
end in the 29th! Compared to men his
age he was in the top 12% at the end of the
4 month period.
The DXA scanner is definitely a research level tool to measure
Body Composition.The
DXA Scanner looks at five body regions + any defined
sub-regions and calculates fat and
lean mass in each area down to the gram.
We would use
the baseline informationto
design a Modified Zone/Paleo Nutrition Prescription.
We set short term and long term goals to lose fat and gain
muscle and help you reach them!
In addition to the reports provided by the
Hologic Discovery A Software, we are
able to compare scans and then create a graphical
picture of the results. Here are the results over a 2 1/2
year period of time of our December 2010 Inside Outside Star of
the Month,
Cory Hatfield.
