Diagnostics

1. For best scan results, we ask that you please FAST for 2 hours prior to your DexaFit Scan.
2. Avoid exercise or other vigorous activity on the day of your scan and stay well-hydrated.
3. Wear tights, sports bra, compression shorts or other athletic attire without any metal buttons, snaps, zippers or bra clasps. Also refrain from any clothing or undergarments that contain metallic imprinting inks or threads. Lastly, please wear socks. 
4. You’ll be asked to empty your pockets and remove metal items like watches, belts, glasses, and jewelry.
5. Avoid taking any calcium supplements in the 24 hours prior to the scan. This includes multivitamins as well as antacids such as TUMS®.
6. No gastrointestinal contrast, barium or other contrast mediums and radionuclides within 48 hours of your appointment.
7. During the scan you will relax on an open-air DEXA scan table. The process is quick and uses minimal radiation, equivalent to about four bananas worth of exposure, or a few hours of natural background radiation. The DexaFit scan is a straightforward, non-invasive procedure designed for your comfort and convenience, providing valuable insights into your body composition.

7. During a VO2 Max test, you'll perform a graded exercise test on a treadmill, starting at low intensity and gradually increasing to your maximum effort. You'll be fitted with a mask that measures your oxygen consumption and CO2 output, providing data on your aerobic capacity. The test is designed to safely determine your fitness level under careful monitoring.
8. Your VO2 Max is is a reflection of your aerobic power, and your body’s ability to keep performing under strenuous activity for longer periods of time. Calculating your VO2 Max is important for both athletes and non-athletes. Ultimately, knowing the maximum amount of oxygen you can take in is an important part of cardiorespiratory fitness.

1. You must FAST for at least 5 hours prior to the test; no food or beverages other than water. Note: It is important that you stay well hydrated with room temp water prior to your test. 
2. Avoid exercise, stressful situations and vigorous activity for at least 12 hours prior to testing.

7. Your RMR accounts for about 70% of your Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE). Knowing it is essential for accurately gauging your daily calorie needs. This information is critical whether you're aiming to lose weight, build muscle, or maintain your current state. It's the foundational number on which your nutrition and fitness plans should be built.

Not necessarily. We’ll recommend the right combination based on your goals; fat loss, muscle gain, performance, or metabolic health.

Most appointments are efficient and structured. The exact time depends on which tests you choose.

If you’re actively working toward a goal, retesting every 90 days is a strong cadence for measurable progress.

No. VO2 Max is one of the best indicators of cardiovascular fitness and is useful for anyone focused on health and longevity.

Online calculators estimate. RMR testing measures your actual metabolic output so you can set nutrition targets accurately.

Yes;  diagnostics pair perfectly with GLP-1 plans, peptide therapy, hormone optimization, and performance coaching.
