As Australia’s pioneer in DEXA body composition scanning since 2006, we combine cutting-edge technology with expert interpretation to turn complex biological data into clear, actionable guidance that drives real results. Our comprehensive services include DEXA scans, VO₂ max testing, resting metabolic rate analysis and personalised health recommendations — all designed to benchmark your body’s composition, track progress over time, and optimise performance and wellbeing. We believe knowledge is power. That’s why our assessments are delivered by accredited exercise physiologists who translate advanced physiological metrics into tailored strategies for fat loss, strength gain, bone health and overall vitality. With clinics in Sydney and Brisbane, and a commitment to fostering healthier lives through science and insight, MeasureUp is trusted by individuals and professionals alike to provide meaningful, personalised pathways to better health. MeasureUp has pioneered the use of DEXA for body composition scans in Australia since 2005. Our director, Dr Meerkin, had been using DEXA as a research tool for 13 years before he established Body Composition Australia in 2005 and subsequently MeasureUp in 2010. DEXA can accurately benchmark an individual allowing them to track changes in muscle and fat tissue. Some of our clients include, the Wallabies (Australian Rugby Union Squad), Samantha Stosur (Winner 2011 US Women’s Open), Casey Dellacqua (Australian Pro Tennis Player), Cas and Jonesy (Polar Adventurers), NRL Teams (Roosters, Eels, Wests Tigers, Manly and 2012 minor premiers the Bulldogs) and Hugh Jackman (Hollywood star of films such as Wolverine, Australia and The Prestige) just to name a few.
