Athletic Performance Tracking
A DEXA scan gives athletes an accurate read on lean muscle, body fat, and left-to-right symmetry — and tracks how they change across a training cycle. It’s the measurement used in sports science, available directly to you in Wayne, PA for $250.
Symmetry and segmental data
For an athlete, an overall body fat number only goes so far. What often matters more is the detail: how much lean mass you carry, where it sits, and whether your left and right sides are balanced. A DEXA scan reports lean mass and fat region by region, and separates your left side from your right.
That segmental view can surface a left-to-right imbalance you might not feel — useful context for training and, when relevant, return-to-play conversations. We provide the measurement; how you act on it is a decision for you and your coach or clinician.
Because DEXA measures directly and consistently, it’s well suited to catching the small, real changes that matter in training — the kind calipers and smart scales can miss.
Training across a cycle
The most useful way to use DEXA in training is to measure change. Scanning at the start and end of a block shows whether you added lean mass, lost fat, or both, and whether the change was distributed the way you intended — rather than leaving you to guess from the scale.
With a simple $250 flat fee and no membership, you can scan on whatever schedule your season calls for. Keeping conditions similar between scans makes each comparison meaningful.

Common questions
What can a DEXA scan tell an athlete?
It measures your lean muscle mass, body fat, and how both are distributed — including left-to-right symmetry — with more accuracy and consistency than a scale or calipers. It's the same measurement approach used in sports science.
How does DEXA show symmetry?
Segmental analysis reports lean mass separately for each limb and side, making any left-to-right imbalance visible. That can be useful information for training and return-to-play decisions, which you'd make with your coach or clinician.
When should I scan during a training cycle?
Many athletes scan at the start and end of a training block to measure what changed. Scanning under similar conditions keeps results comparable.
Is DEXA better than calipers or a smart scale?
DEXA measures tissue directly and reproducibly, so it's less sensitive to technique and hydration than calipers or bioelectrical-impedance scales, and better for tracking small changes over time.
Do I need a referral, and what does it cost?
No referral is needed. A complete DEXA body composition scan is $250, flat and cash-pay, with no membership.
A complete DEXA body composition scan is $250 — flat, with no referral or insurance needed.
