[quote=Anonymous]I’ve done both in body scans at my gym and Dexa scans. The inbody was fairly close to the Dexa scan. Sadly, that body fat percentage is fairly normal for middle age. I’m 5’2 120-125 and Dexa showed me at 27% body fat (87 lbs of muscle). In body had me at 30 and 26. That put me at less than 10% compared to 51-62 year olds-I’m 52. It showed where the fat was distributed around the body. Luckily most of mine is in my hips (not a surprise) despite having 32ddd chest. Having a lot around the waist is not good. Are you sure that visceral fat is right? Mine was .52 lbs. i wouldn’t count on inbody for that measurement-there’s now at the scan could figure that out. Dexa does give you bone density but it’s overall. It takes into account your entire body vs a medical bone density scan where they only look at spine and hip. That’s what you want if you have osteoporosis. I have osteopenia but the dexa bone density showed I was in the a erage range since it takes the entire body into account. [/quote]
