genuine question about DEXA that I am slightly embarrassed to ask
Quick one. Canada here.
resistance training works very differently where I live than in the threads that dominate the front page, and I keep seeing people confidently given advice that simply does not apply outside the US.
Specifics: the route I used took 17 weeks and cost roughly what I expected. The admin was worse than the cost. The thing that would have saved me the most time was knowing which document to ask for at the start.
Happy to answer questions from anyone in the same jurisdiction.

My version of this: I was so worried about the injection that I put it off for eleven days. The injection is the easiest part.
lean mass retention is the 72 week conversation
DEXA twice yearly is the pattern
This is correct. DEXA is the standard.
No. This is the kind of confident post that gets copied into a screenshot and repeated for years. Where is the evidence.
Three years on this site and the questions have not changed at all. Which is depressing or reassuring depending on the day.
