Stay Stronger, Longer with DexaFit's Longevity Tests
The Anti-Aging Workout Starts with Data
When it comes to fitness, most people focus on short-term goals like weight loss or building muscle. But true longevity in fitness goes beyond aesthetics—it’s about staying strong, healthy, and vibrant as you age. At DexaFit West Houston, Dr. Gregory Burzynski and team believe that the key to aging well lies in understanding your body better and using data to optimize your fitness plan.
With the right tools, like VO2 Max, DEXA Scan, and the Galleri® Test, you can build a science-backed strategy to stay strong, lean, and healthy over the long term. Under the guidance of Dr. Gregory Burzynski, our team helps you unlock insights that will guide you in training for life, not just a quick result.
These tests offer more than just numbers—they give you a clearer picture of your body’s true health, empowering you to make smarter decisions and improve your quality of life as you age.
The Three Pillars of Longevity Fitness
To train for longevity, it’s crucial to track more than just how much weight you’re lifting or how many calories you're burning. The anti-aging workout begins with data. At DexaFit West Houston, we offer a comprehensive testing bundle that includes three key tests, each providing valuable insights into your fitness and health. Together, these tests give you a complete view of your body’s current state, helping you make informed decisions for a healthier, longer life.
1. VO2 Max – Measuring Cardiovascular Fitness & Longevity Risk
VO2 Max is widely considered one of the most important markers of cardiovascular fitness and overall longevity. It measures how well your body uses oxygen during exercise and indicates the efficiency of your heart and lungs. A higher VO2 Max is associated with better endurance and lower risk for chronic diseases like heart disease and diabetes.
Why it matters: VO2 Max is a direct indicator of how well your body can handle sustained physical activity. The higher your VO2 Max, the better equipped you are to age well and maintain physical function.
What we measure: During your VO2 Max test, we’ll assess how much oxygen you consume while exercising, giving us an accurate understanding of your cardiovascular health and fitness.
2. DEXA Scan – Track Body Composition, Bone Density, and Lean Mass
Body composition goes beyond just weight. A DEXA scan measures your body’s lean mass, fat mass, and bone density with extreme accuracy. This is crucial for understanding your metabolic health and tracking the changes that occur as you age.
Why it matters: As we get older, muscle mass tends to decrease while fat mass increases. This can lead to a slower metabolism, lower energy levels, and greater risk for conditions like osteoporosis. A DEXA scan provides insight into these changes, allowing you to take action before they become major issues.
What we measure: Your lean mass (muscle and organs), fat mass, and bone density will be precisely tracked, giving you a clear understanding of where you stand in terms of physical health.
3. Galleri® Test – Screen for 50+ Types of Early-Stage Cancer
Prevention is always better than cure, especially when it comes to cancer. The Galleri® test is a groundbreaking blood test that screens for more than 50 types of early-stage cancer, many of which may not show symptoms until later stages.
Why it matters: Early detection can make all the difference in cancer treatment. By knowing whether you're at risk for certain cancers, you can take proactive steps toward prevention or early intervention.
What we measure: The Galleri test looks at DNA signals from cancer cells, identifying potential cancers before symptoms appear.
