Tailored health and fitness diagnostics is a personalised approach to understanding your body's unique needs and goals. It involves using advanced technology and expert analysis to provide a comprehensive picture of your overall health and fitness. At Tano Performance Group, we specialise in providing high-income professionals with the tools and information they need to take their physical appearance, body fat, physique, and bone density to the next level.

Why is Accurate Body Composition Analysis Important?

Accurate body composition analysis is crucial for anyone looking to improve their health and fitness. Knowing your body fat percentage, lean muscle mass, and bone density can help you identify areas for improvement and track progress over time. This information can also be used to develop a personalised fitness and nutrition plan that is tailored to your specific needs and goals.

What is a DEXA Scan?

A DEXA (Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry) scan is a non-invasive, pain-free test that measures bone density and body composition. It uses low-level X-rays to produce a detailed image of your body's composition, including bone density, lean muscle mass, and body fat percentage. DEXA scans are commonly used to diagnose osteoporosis, but they can also be used to provide a comprehensive picture of overall health and fitness.

How Does a DEXA Scan Work?

A DEXA scan typically takes around 10-15 minutes to complete. During the test, you will lie on a flat table, and a scanner will pass over your body, taking detailed images of your bones and body composition. The scanner uses two X-ray beams of different energy levels to measure the density of your bones and body tissue. This information is then used to calculate your body fat percentage, lean muscle mass, and bone density.

What Can a DEXA Scan Measure?

A DEXA scan can measure a range of health and fitness metrics, including:

• Bone density: A measure of the strength and density of your bones, which can help identify osteoporosis or osteopenia.
• Body fat percentage: A measure of the percentage of your body that is composed of fat, which can help identify areas for weight loss or improvement.
• Lean muscle mass: A measure of the amount of muscle tissue in your body, which can help identify areas for improvement in strength and fitness.
• Visceral fat: A measure of the amount of fat around your internal organs, which can be a risk factor for chronic diseases like diabetes and heart disease.
• Regional body composition: A measure of the distribution of fat and muscle tissue in different areas of your body, such as your arms, legs, and trunk.

What are the Benefits of a DEXA Scan?

There are many benefits to undergoing a DEXA scan, including:

• Accurate body composition analysis: A DEXA scan provides a precise measurement of your body fat percentage, lean muscle mass, and bone density.
• Personalised fitness and nutrition planning: The information provided by a DEXA scan can be used to develop a personalised fitness and nutrition plan that is tailored to your specific needs and goals.
• Early detection of health risks: A DEXA scan can help identify health risks such as osteoporosis, visceral fat, and other chronic diseases.
• Tracking progress: A DEXA scan can be used to track changes in your body composition over time, helping you to stay motivated and see the results of your hard work.

How Often Should I Get a DEXA Scan?

The frequency of DEXA scans depends on your individual goals and needs. If you are looking to track changes in your body composition over time, it is recommended to get a DEXA scan every 6-12 months. If you are looking to monitor the effectiveness of a specific fitness or nutrition program, you may want to get a DEXA scan more frequently, such as every 3-6 months.

What Happens After the Scan?

After the scan, one of our expert analysts will review the results and provide you with a comprehensive report outlining your body composition, bone density, and other health metrics. We will also work with you to develop a personalised fitness and nutrition plan that is tailored to your specific needs and goals. Our team of experts will provide ongoing support and guidance to help you achieve your health and fitness goals.
