About DexaFit Columbus North

Real numbers for your body.Measured with precision.

DexaFit Columbus North puts clinical-grade testing within reach on Olentangy River Road. DEXA body composition, VO₂ Max, and RMR, run on the same instruments researchers and hospitals rely on.

Who we are

The foundation underneath every choice you make for your health.

A number on the scale. A step count on your wrist. A line on a lab report. None of it shows you what your body is made of, what it can do, or what keeps it running.

DexaFit began in Chicago in 2011 around one conviction: stop guessing about the body and start measuring it directly. That conviction has spread into a network spanning four continents, grounded in over a decade of real-world data. Columbus North is where that same standard now opens its doors.

We do not push a diet, a supplement, or a workout plan. We hand you the numbers that show whether yours are paying off. Measure first. Then decide.

What we test

Three tests. One clear read.

Each one answers something your scale, your mirror, and your wearable leave open.

Animated DEXA body composition scan

DEXA Scan

See what you carry, region by region.

A short, open-air scan charts fat, lean muscle, and bone density across every part of you, including the visceral fat tucked around your organs. Direct measurement near ±2% for body fat, where a smart scale can drift 8 to 15% off.

Animated VO2 Max fitness stats

VO₂ Max Test

The limit on what your engine can give.

A guided effort test measures how well your body pulls in and uses oxygen, offered as a full VO₂ Max or a VO₂ Submax test. Across 122,007 people it tracked all-cause mortality more closely than smoking, blood pressure, or cholesterol. Your watch estimates this number. We measure it.Mandsager et al., JAMA 2018; N = 122,007.

Animated RMR metabolism breath test

RMR Metabolism Test

See how many calories you burn at rest.

A few minutes of easy breathing reveals your resting metabolism, read from your breath rather than pulled from a formula. App and calculator estimates can be off by 20 to 30%. Your nutrition gets built on your real number.

Reviewing DexaFit results read against reference ranges
How we work

Clinical-grade, measured against the right benchmark.

A number only means something next to the right context. Every result is read against age- and sex-matched reference ranges, then put into plain language you can use. You walk out knowing where you stand and the next move to make.

DexaFit fits alongside your physician, your coach, and your wearables, not in place of them. We are the baseline the rest of your plan gets measured against.

Return in a few months and the numbers give you the truth: what shifted, what held, and whether the plan is doing its job.
