Be Well by Kelly Leveque 345: From Wall Street to Wellness: The Power of Data-Driven Health | Adam Kadela
In today’s episode, I’m joined by Adam Kadela, co-founder of DexaFit and DexaFit Dx. A former athlete and trader turned health tech entrepreneur, Adam set out to make advanced diagnostic testing, like DEXA scans and VO2 max, accessible outside of elite labs and into everyday wellness routines.
We talk about the evolution of DexaFit from local clinics to a global platform trusted by athletes and doctors. He explains why tracking the right metrics matters, how often to test, the truth about body recomposition, the best ways to lower visceral fat, and what most people get wrong about wearables and weight loss.
