Want to age in reverse? Learn how DEXA Scan tracks lean mass, fat loss, and bone health so you can build a routine that keeps you strong and youthful.
While you can’t stop time, you can slow the effects of aging on your body — and in some cases, even reverse them. The key lies in building and maintaining lean muscle, strengthening your bones, and keeping your metabolism active.
At Kalos, we use DEXA Scan technology to measure exactly how your fitness routine impacts your biological age. With the right training, nutrition, and recovery habits, you can maintain the physique, energy, and health markers of someone years younger.
Aging doesn’t just mean getting older, it means losing lean mass, gaining fat, and weakening bones — all of which are modifiable. Research shows that with proper resistance training and recovery, people in their 50s and 60s can regain the muscle, mobility, and metabolic health of someone decades younger.
Your DEXA scan reveals how well you’re aging on a cellular and structural level, including:
1. Resistance Training (3–4x per week)
Lifting weights or using resistance bands helps combat muscle loss and keeps your metabolism high. Focus on compound movements like squats, rows, and presses to engage multiple muscle groups.
2. Mobility and Stability Work
Yoga, Pilates, and mobility sessions improve flexibility, balance, and joint health — all crucial for longevity and injury prevention.
3. Cardiovascular Conditioning
Cardio supports heart health and mitochondrial efficiency, which keeps energy levels up and fat metabolism strong. Alternate between steady-state sessions and short intervals.
4. Prioritize Protein and Recovery
Your body becomes less efficient at using protein as you age. Aim for 0.8–1.0g of protein per pound of body weight daily and prioritize 7–8 hours of sleep for recovery.
5. Regular DEXA Scans to Track Progress
Every few weeks, a DEXA scan can show how well your body is responding — whether you’re building lean mass, reducing visceral fat, or improving bone density.
A DEXA Scan provides measurable proof that your fitness efforts are working. For example:
These data points show the difference between simply exercising and training with intention for longevity.
Aging in reverse isn’t magic — it’s science. By preserving lean mass, protecting bone density, and maintaining a healthy fat-to-muscle ratio, you can literally turn back your body’s biological clock. With DEXA Scan, you can see those changes happening in real time and build a routine that keeps you strong, youthful, and resilient.
