Today we’d like to introduce you to Maureen O’Mara.
Hi Maureen, we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
I retired in 2018 after a 30 years career in the federal government. I was on a fitness/health journey and wanted to get some baseline metrics so I tried to find a DXA scanner to get my total body composition. DXA is the gold standard for measuring body composition. I did not find a business that offered this service so I partnered with DexaFit and opened DEXAFIT ATLANTA.
Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
I have been absolutely blown away by the response to my business. People from all demographics and even different states come to DEXAFIT ATLANTA for their body composition and metabolic testing. It’s been amazing. I have had struggles during COVID and having to close the business. My clients stuck with it though and kept me going.
Thanks – so what else should our readers know about DEXAFIT ATLANTA?
DEXAFIT ATLANTA has made it simple, affordable and convenient to access cutting-edge medical-grade diagnostic technologies considered the “gold standard” by hospitals, research facilities and professional sports labs. We use an evidence-based approach with data-driven insights to give clients tangible and accurate metrics to know where they are and help them get to where they want to be.
DEXAFIT ATLANTA does body composition testing to measure subcutaneous fat, visceral fat around the organs, lean tissue, bone and bone density. We do metabolic testing including resting metabolic rate (RMR) and VO2 max testing. RMR testing is done to determine the number of calories an individual burns at rest. VO2 max testing is the single best predictor of health and longevity and tells you the exercise intensities that burn fat.
We also do bone density testing to determine if you have, or are at risk for, osteoporosis before you break a bone.
I am proud of the clients that take this data and use it to transform their bodies and their lives. It is inspiring.
How can people work with you, collaborate with you or support you?
Right now, I work alone.
