BMI, or Body Mass Index, is an appoximation of body fat based on height and weight. It is a poor way to measure body fat compared to an actual Body Fat measurement using the DEXA. The reason for this is that BMI assumes that everyone of a certain height should be within the same weight range.n order to optimize the program though, it is vital to see where you are in terms of body fat percentage and lean body mass (the mass of the body minus the fat). The results of the DEXA body fat analysis will accomplish this and help determine the proper nutrition and exercise program.
