Hello my loves!! For all of my Non-American viewers, I converted all the measurements to KG for you in the description box! 👆There's also everything I mentioned in the description box, so make sure to check there if you are wondering where I've linked everything!

I hope you enjoyed my take on a typical DEXA scan video! I didn't want to just give you a bunch of numbers, rather, I wanted to make you guys think deeper and maybe learn something from this little experiment! This will hopefully make you less focused on arbitrary numbers and make you look at these types of body fat tests with a more skeptical eye 👀 #science.

Let me know what you thought! 🙏👇I love getting your feedback! Until next time, HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!! XOXO 💋💕

The video really helps us find out why i keep losing weight for so long but i still didn't lower my body fat.
I was upset to see my unchanged body fat number, especially when i changed my daily diet, tried to eat healthier, tried weight-training!!!!!
But, in fact, i looked fit in the mirror than i did, which makes me so confused hahaha!

Love your explanation and different ways of looking at all the measurements. Love a video from how to lose fat and maintain muscles for women. I tend to put on muscles easily but hard to lose fat. Thank you!

I don't know if I'm just looking in all the wrong places on this subject, can you explain recovery after injury from working out improperly in the first place? Or injury from other strained movement related causes? Perhaps this is a newbie only problem. I thought I was using proper form and always checking myself in the mirror but I didn't think to watch myself using resistance bands until after my knees started hurting.

I had my BF% checked through calipers and then got a DEXA scan about a week later. Calipers said 25%, and then DEXA said 35%!? Got measured after with a handheld device and it said 24%. I definitely look closer to the mid 20%s. It's just crazy that DEXA was SO off.

Stephanie… thank for this video. It was really informative to know that a way to see that you are getting muscle mass is by performing at the gym. Impressive enough i've started to lean out however my energy and strength at the gym has gone up, even allowing me to get new PR's. I appreciate your content and the fact that you are putting out this information to educate us all and you are transparent with it all. I just a a quick question… How accurate do you think your Body Analyzer from Vanity Planet is? and how far off is it from your DEXA scan results?. Thank You again and i hope you reply to my message since I'm in the look for a good digital scale.

Wow, it seems inaccurate. Don’t think I’ll waste the money.

4lbs of muscle in one night not bad! No but seriously, this video was interesting to watch. It's good to know that even something as well-developed as the DEXA scan has its limitations. Thanks for the upload Steph

So, malnutrition can lead to fat gain?

Although I really appreciate how informative these videos are, part of me can't help but feel hesitant. Having about 15% body fat as a woman is really borderline passable, and is still quite underfat. The recommended amount is 20% or more.
As somebody recovering from an eating disorder, I think that as great as these videos are, they are still at the quite extreme side of "heathy living" or whatever you want to call it. Even if it wasn't the original intention of the creator, it makes one feel that they are not as healthy as they should be, when in reality that might not be true.

That would be because of how fat is burned. You need water and exercise in order to burn fat. Might check out "SciShow" and their video on fat loss.

please write down the metric numbers as well next time 😅 i had to keep stopping the video to convert numbers to understand the differences

Reply
Sven Huber July 31, 2019 - 12:01 am

you did not have more body fat just the ratio changed, so if you drink 3kg of water before the scan, then you decrease your ratio, thus better have all metrics like absolute fat mass, etc.

The most obvious conclusion is that even DEXA is not that accurate.

Olivia Lyne December 25, 2019 - 9:19 pm

In your opinion and with your experiences, what measurement tool do you think was the most accurate. I've done DEXA and the InBody and I think the DEXA is more accurate.

I knew I could search through your videos and get a scientific explanation for The DEXA! I got both hydrostatic and DEXA in the same day and there was a 7% difference between the 2! I was 20% in hydrostatic and 27% via DEXA.

Very interesting. This shows how much bullshit there is about body fat. For men already at 12% body fat six pack and muscle definition is very nice.
Women have more body fat, and below 15-16% it's just pointless, no one wants to see every muscle, tendon and vein on a woman.
I'd say this is close to perfect aesthetically, 1 or 2% more body fat would be very good too.
