Exercise dependence or addiction has been described as a 'positive
addiction', but it can have links with damaging dysfunctional and
excessive behaviours, including eating disorders. Clinical and
sport psychologists now acknowledge the condition and report that
it can be found in recreational exercisers and competitive
athletes. This is the first text to provide a comprehensive guide
to exercise dependence. The text contains case studies and reviews
research into exercise dependence in both 'exercise' and 'sports'
contexts. The authors examine the condition in the widest sense,
exploring different types of exercise dependence, risk factors
associated with the condition, the experiences and motivational
characteristics of sufferers, links with eating disorders, and a
number of approaches to counselling. This text will be of
significant interest to psychologists working in sport, health and
clinical practice, as well as to athletes and sports coaches,
particularly those involved in endurance sports associated with
higher incidences of exercise dependence.
