Help - DEXA scan results

[Raiders789]

Hello everyone -

Just finished my first cycle and figured I'd get a DEXA to see where I'm at and to measure progress from possible future cycles. Ended up telling me I was 6.7% body fat... I definitely think that is a big underestimation, I would have guessed that I am somewhere around 11-12%. I threw up a few pics of what I'm looking like, would you guys agree that im like 11-12%? Thanks!

Just out of curiosity, what’s your cycle right now? Water retention will boost lean mass numbers. Various compounds, especially HGH, will have you holding more water.

Dexa scans aren't as accurate as they claim to be. Massively influenced by water weight.

My ex wife was a PHD at a well known university Kinesiology department and would sneak me in on weekends. I had underwater weighing done followed by Dexa and the Dexa reading was 7% higher...She said there are multiple algorithms for calculating the values and depending on which one the machine uses the results can vary massively.

You look 10-12% to me.

For the past two weeks I’ve been doing 220 cyp with 3.5IU gh. When I came off blast I dropped like 5lbs of water and I think that I’m the leanest I’ve been in a while

I just got one done today and according to the results I’m at 8.2%. I was at 22% 6 months ago. Based on the work I’ve been doing I’m guessing I’m closer to 13 or 14% in reality.
