Body Fat USA offers DEXA Body Composition Analysis (body fat test) and Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR) Why? Because, they all work...For some people.

Our philosophy is simple...

Better Data = Better Results

There are literally thousands of diets and workout programs. The question is....Do they work for you?

98% of people measure success or failure using a scale. Scales...well they suck. Body weight doesn't tell you if your diet is really working. Scales don't tell you if all your hard work is paying off in the gym. Scales don't tell you if you are burning fat or burning muscle. One is good, one is bad. Our tests give you the data you need to succeed. Want to know how many calories you burn sitting on the couch? Want to tailor your diet to your body, not generic numbers? Have you struggled to lose weight while dieting? Want to know your precise body fat percentage? Are you determined to lose pounds of fat? Do you want to lose fat and retain or add muscle? Are you looking to take your training to the next level? Do you want to know your precise training zones? Would you like to identify your Anaerobic Threshold? At Body Fat USA all those questions an more are answered. We offer Total Body Composition and Body Fat Testing using DEXA Scan, Resting (Basal) Metabolism Rate, and VO2 Max Fitness Tests. Give us a call or send us a message and we will help you determine which test(s) are right for you.

The second Friday in January (today) has a reputation...

It’s officially known as National Quitter’s Day, the moment when most New Year’s resolutions start to slide.

But here's the thing — New Year's resolutions are built to fail. So rather than blaming the player, we're changing the game.

Progress isn't perfect. Winning habit streaks can be regained. And showing up — even a little — still counts.

Let this be your sign to keep going.

👇 Tell us what you’re building this year:
A big goal you’re chasing
A habit you’re sticking with
A fun adventure you’ve already got planned

Quick check-in—because early data can be useful… if you interpret it correctly.

I’m at day six into this 90-day, data-driven fat-loss experiment, which is far too early to draw conclusions—but not too early to look for patterns.

Here’s what the first week actually tells us:

• Day-to-day weight fluctuates (a lot)
• Training stress shows up before results do
• Energy levels vary more than expected
• The scale reacts faster than body fat ever will

None of that means the plan is working.
And none of it means the plan is failing.

What early data is good for

• Confirming habits are being executed
• Spotting obvious mismatches (intake vs output)
• Identifying recovery issues early
• Making sure nothing is clearly off track

What it’s not good for

❌ Judging fat loss
❌ Making big calorie cuts
❌ Adding panic cardio
❌ Declaring success or failure

Actual changes in fat mass take time to show up—even when you’re doing everything right.

That’s why this phase is about consistency, not conclusions.

DEXA—measured on our GE Lunar Prodigy—comes later, when the signal is strong enough to matter.

👉 Early progress is about building momentum.
Real progress shows up when you’re patient enough to measure it properly.

Fat loss without strength training is a short-term win with a long-term cost.

When people diet without resistance training, they don’t just lose fat.
They lose lean mass.

And lean mass is:
• Metabolically active
• Protective as we age
• A huge driver of long-term health and function

That’s why, during this 90-day experiment, strength training isn’t optional—it’s the insurance policy.

What strength training actually does

• Signals the body to keep muscle while in a calorie deficit
• Helps preserve metabolic rate
• Improves insulin sensitivity
• Supports bone health and joint integrity

In other words:
➡️ It tells your body what not to burn.

That’s also why progress can look confusing if you’re only watching the scale:
• Fat mass can go down
• Lean mass can stay the same (or improve)
• Body weight barely changes

That’s not failure.
That’s success happening under the hood.

To track this correctly, I’m using DEXA—not guesses—to monitor changes in fat mass and lean mass separately, measured on our GE Lunar Prodigy.

👉 If the goal is to look, feel, and perform better—not just be lighter—strength training is non-negotiable.

01/04/2026

More cardio isn’t always better.
Better cardio is better.

One of the biggest misconceptions in fat loss is that you need to push as hard as possible, every time, to see results.

That’s not how physiology works.

During this 90-day experiment, I’m being intentional about how I do cardio—not just how much.

A quick breakdown
• Lower-intensity cardio (Zones 2–3)
• Supports fat oxidation
• Improves aerobic capacity
• Easier to recover from
• Sustainable long-term

• Higher-intensity cardio (Zone 4)
• Powerful tool
• Improves conditioning
• Burns more glycogen
• Higher recovery cost

Zone 4 isn’t “bad.”
It’s just expensive—from a recovery standpoint.

That’s why my approach isn’t:
❌ “Go hard every day”

It’s:
✅ Use intensity strategically
✅ Balance stress with recovery
✅ Support fat loss without sacrificing lean mass

If fat loss were just about suffering, everyone would already be shredded.

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE reach out to a trust professional regarding what exercise and diet is best for YOU!!!! This FB thread is NOT intended to be advise. We are all different and you deserve a personalized plan.

👉 Progress comes from the right stress, applied at the right time, with enough recovery to adapt.

I don’t track food because I’m obsessive.
I track food because I hate guessing.

One of the biggest reasons fat-loss plans fail isn’t motivation—it’s miscalculation.

Most people are unknowingly dealing with:
• Under-eating on some days
• Over-eating on others
• And wildly inaccurate calorie targets in between

So for this 90-day experiment, I’m tracking my food daily using Cronometer.

Not because it’s perfect—but because it lets me reduce error.

Here’s why Cronometer matters

• I can import calorie expenditure data from my watch
• I can adjust my calorie targets using my measured Resting Metabolic Rate
• I can see patterns over time—not just “good” or “bad” days

Most apps estimate your metabolism using formulas.
I’m not doing that.

I’m using my actual RMR, measured with a Korr MetaCheck—because guessing how many calories your body burns at rest is like guessing your bank balance and hoping it works out.

The goal isn’t perfection

It’s awareness.

When you know:
• What you’re eating
• What you’re burning
• And how your body actually responds

You stop relying on willpower—and start making adjustments that make sense.

👉 You don’t need more discipline.
You need better information.

01/02/2026

If weight loss were the goal, a bathroom scale would be enough.

But it’s not.

When most people say they want to “lose weight,” what they actually mean is:
• Lose fat
• Keep muscle
• Look better
• Perform better
• Feel better

The problem?
The scale can’t tell the difference between fat, muscle, water, or glycogen.

That’s why during a fat-loss phase:
• The scale might stall
• Or barely move
• Or even go up

…while your body composition is improving.

What actually matters

Fat mass ↓
Lean mass ↔️ or ↑

That’s the difference between:
❌ “smaller”
✅ “healthier”

In my 90-day experiment, I’m tracking fat loss—not just weight using DEXA, measured on our GE Lunar Prodigy, because it shows what the scale never can.

Over the next few weeks, I fully expect:
• Fluctuations
• Plateaus
• Weeks where the scale lies

And that’s okay—because the data tells the real story.

👉 If your only feedback is a scale, you’re missing most of the picture.

New Year. New data. No guesswork.

Like a lot of people, I’m starting Q1 with a clear health goal—but instead of chasing a number on a scale, I’m running a 90-day, data-driven fat-loss experiment.

Here’s my starting point, measured—not estimated:
• Total body weight: 183 lbs
• Fat mass: 43.2 lbs
• Measurement method: DEXA, using our GE Lunar Prodigy

The Goal

Lose body fat over the next 90 days while protecting (and ideally increasing) lean mass.

Not crash dieting.
Not vibes.
Not “I think it’s working.”

The Plan (simple, not easy):
• Track food intake daily using Cronometer
• Cardio + strength training, consistently
• Adjust nutrition using my measured Resting Metabolic Rate from a Korr MetaCheck test
• Re-measure progress with DEXA—not a bathroom scale

Over the next few months, I’ll be sharing:
✔ What’s working
✔ What’s not
✔ What the data actually shows
✔ And what I’d change if I were coaching a client instead of myself

If you’re setting goals this year, here’s my challenge to you:

👉 Start with better data before you chase better results.

More to come!

Motivation fades.
Data doesn’t.

If you track:
• your steps
• your workouts
• your sleep
• your food
• your body

you’ll always know whether you’re winning.

Choose 3 metrics you will track weekly for the next 90 days.

12/30/2025

January isn’t about going hard.
It’s about building habits that don’t collapse in February.

Your first month should focus on:
• showing up
• tracking
• consistency

Not perfection, progress. 80% weekly!!!

Pick 3 habits you will track every day in January.

12/28/2025

Shrink the Goal

Don’t plan 2026. Plan the first 90 days of 2026.

Three months is short enough to focus…
and long enough to change your life.

Whatever your big goal is — health, money, career — it only gets real when you ask:
“What would progress look like by March 31st?”

Write your 90-day outcome — not the year, just the first quarter.

12/27/2025

Most New Year’s goals don’t fail in February.
They fail in January — because people don’t know what “winning” looks like.

“Lose 30 pounds.”
“Get in shape.”
“Make more money.”
Those aren’t goals — they’re wishes.

Real progress comes from knowing what success looks like this week.

Write down one thing that would make this week a win. Just one.
