I was most interested in bone density, and the DEXA scan reports this:



It also says my overall bone density is in the 1st percentile for my age:

_________________________
Bottom Line

Your DEXA scan shows:

Very athletic body composition for a 68-year-old endurance cyclist.

Key highlights:
  • Body fat: 12.6%
  • Lean mass: extremely high
  • Leg muscle mass: excellent
  • Muscle symmetry: perfect
  • Visceral fat: extremely low
  • Bone density: mild osteopenia signal (common in cyclists)
From a performance standpoint, your morphology is well suited for climbing cycling events.
