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.
