Widely recognised as an expert in DEXA technology, Dr. Meerkin has built a distinguished career in both research and clinical practice.After completing his PhD, Dr. Meerkin became the National Sports Science Research Coordinator for the Australian Paralympic Committee. He then spent four years as a senior research fellow at QUT, focusing on obesity and exercise research. Six years ago, he moved to Sydney, where he continues to integrate research with clinical work before co-founding Measure Up.In this episode, we explore the intricacies of DEXA, RMR, and VO2 max testing, delving into why these assessments are regarded as vital measures of healthspan and longevity. I’ve personally undergone all of these tests, and we take time to reflect on my results throughout the discussion. While these are a few key metrics, we’ll be covering even more valuable insights as we continue this journey.Scientific Studies discussed:ZiMian Wang, Zhiliang Ying, Anja Bosy-Westphal, Junyi Zhang, Britta Schautz, Wiebke Later, Steven B Heymsfield, and Manfred J MüllerSpecific metabolic rates of major organs and tissues across adulthood: evaluation by mechanistic model of resting energy expenditure.Leah M.
