Description
Christina Gjestvang and co-authors survey fitness club members about the risk of disordered eating, in work from 2024. Gym settings can treat odd eating habits and too much exercise as normal. The team asked whether members show signs of risk and what traits go with it.
Two hundred thirty-two members filled in an online survey on eating risk, body views, and reasons to exercise. About one in five were at risk. Some reported secret eating or a past eating disorder. Risk was linked with higher body mass and stronger weight based self views. The study supports screening and support in gym settings.
