2026 Health Blueprint: DEXA Scan & VO₂ Max Testing | Houston

Every year, millions of people set ambitious New Year’s resolutions: “get fit,” “eat healthier,” or “finally run that 5K.” Yet too often, these goals fall short—not because of lack of effort, but because we start without understanding where our bodies truly stand.

Lasting results begin with knowledge. Science-backed testing that goes beyond the scale can provide a clear picture of your body composition, cardiovascular fitness, and overall health—giving you the insight needed to make meaningful, sustainable changes.

Meet the Experts Guiding Your Health Journey

Turning insight into action requires expertise. At DexaFit West Houston, Dr. Gregory Burzynski and his team help adults of all fitness levels understand their bodies and reach their goals safely and efficiently.

They guide you through advanced assessments like DEXA scans and VO₂ Max testing, interpreting the data so you can make informed decisions about your training, nutrition, and overall health. With this personalized approach, your plan isn’t just another resolution—it’s a roadmap tailored to your unique body and lifestyle.

Start with the Numbers That Matter

Stepping on a scale only tells part of the story. Two people can weigh the same, yet one might have more lean muscle while the other carries more body fat. That’s where a DexaFit Body Scan comes in.

A DEXA Scan provides a detailed breakdown of your body composition, showing exactly how much:

• Lean muscle – the tissue that powers strength and metabolism

• Body fat – areas that may affect health and performance

• Bone mass – essential for long-term skeletal health

This information lets you see where you’re strong and where you can improve. For instance, if your scan reveals lower lean muscle in your legs, your training plan can focus on building strength in that area.

With this level of detail, you can move beyond generic advice and create a plan tailored to your body’s unique needs, helping you make smarter choices for lasting results.

Measure Your Fitness with VO₂ Max Testing

Understanding your body composition is one piece of the puzzle—cardiovascular fitness is another. A VO₂ Max test measures how efficiently your body uses oxygen during exercise, making it the gold standard for endurance and overall cardiovascular performance.

Knowing your VO₂ Max can help you:

• Train smarter – tailor workouts to your current fitness level

• Improve stamina – build endurance for daily activities or athletic goals

• Boost energy – enhance your body’s efficiency during movement

When combined with your DexaFit Body Scan results, you get a complete picture of your body’s strengths and areas for improvement. With guidance from Dr. Gregory Burzynski, you can use this information to set realistic goals, adjust your training, and focus on changes that truly benefit your overall health.

Your Personal Health Blueprint

When you put DEXA and VO₂ Max results together, you create your personal health blueprint. This isn’t just a snapshot—it’s a guide for the entire year.

Your blueprint can answer questions like:

• How much lean muscle do I need to gain for better metabolism and strength?

• Am I carrying fat in areas that increase health risks?

• How efficient is my cardiovascular system, and what can I do to improve it?

Armed with this information, you can design workouts that challenge your body appropriately, choose nutrition strategies that support your goals, and track progress with real numbers—not estimates or feelings.

Small Changes, Big Impact

Knowing your numbers makes lifestyle changes more sustainable. With guidance from Dr. Gregory Burzynski and the DexaFit team, you can use data-driven insights to focus on habits that produce meaningful, measurable results.

For instance, if your VO₂ Max shows room for improvement, adding targeted cardio sessions or interval training becomes more meaningful. If your DEXA Scan highlights areas of lower lean muscle, strength training isn’t just a suggestion—it’s a necessary step toward a healthier, stronger you.

Even small, consistent actions compound over time. Your personal blueprint shows you exactly where to focus, maximizing your efforts and minimizing wasted energy.

Tracking Progress Throughout the Year

The beauty of having a detailed baseline is that it allows for accurate tracking. When you retest in a few months, you can see improvements reflected in your body composition and VO₂ Max scores. This kind of feedback is motivating and actionable.

With guidance from Dr. Gregory Burzynski and the DexaFit team, tracking progress isn’t just about numbers—it’s about understanding how your body responds to training, nutrition, and lifestyle changes. The data empowers you to adjust your plan for continued success, helping you avoid plateaus and achieve lasting results.
