Abstract
Four thousand participants completed multiple measures of exercise addiction, body dysmorphia, and disordered eating. Robust trends toward disordered eating and body image were monotonically related to time spent in physical activity, especially amongst Division I athletes, powerlifters, and results of interventions to lower dependence while maintaining physical activity are discussed.
