HI

I'm a 53yr old male. I had a DEXA scan on the 19th March 2026. I also for comparison took my hume body scale readings. This scan was after a bulk from January 1st. I strength train 5 days a week...include cardio 5 days a week also.... and am very dialled in on my diet in particular my protein requirements.

DEXA. HUME BODY POD

WEIGHT 102.6kg 102.6kg

FAT MASS 23.5kg 22.6kg

BODY FAT 23.2% 22.2kg

LEAN MASS. 75.26kg. 74.9kg

As you can see no major variation. However since then I have started a cut and now weigh 93.75kg. However this is the confusing part according to my Hume readings(not due another DEXA for 6 weeks).

According to Hume my new stats are as follows.

HUME BODY POD

WEIGHT 93.75kg

FAT MASS 21.8kg

BODY FAT 20.5kg

LEAN MASS. 71.5kg

Basically according to Hume all I've lost is muscle and fat mass is unchanged despite nearly 10kg weigh loss.

However I set up a new hume account and reduced my age to 33 and the results flip flopped body fat percentage falling dramatically whilst lean mass increasing.

My question is this an age bias in the algorithm where it assumes if a 53 yr old male loses weight it must be muscle whilst a younger guy is presumed to have increased is muscle mass.

Thanks for reading and appreciate any comments.

Hi 6'2"m 97kg. Dropped 10kg over last 10 weeks. Introduced Reta initially at 2ml 4 weeks ago after reaching plateau. Now up to 4ml. Workout 5 days a week c/w cardio 4 times a week. Protein set at 250gm per day.

Thinking of introducing 250 Test C per week along with 4iu HGH and MOTS-C

Could anyone offer some comments on whether its a good stack. Aim is to drop to 85kg which should leave me at 12-15% b/f based on last DEXA scan and help preserve muscle in cut.

Thanks
