You have a faithful following in your high intensity classes, but you notice one particular individual never misses and always exercises at a frenetic pace. Obsession with exercise can be a symptom of all of the following EXCEPT:
  1. Exercise dependence
  2. A desire to attain a healthy weight
  3. Anorexia nervosa
  4. Bulimia nervosa
Explanation
Answer: B - A desire to attain a healthy weight is a normal goal for exercisers. Unhealthy attitudes toward physical activity -- including a preoccupation with exercise - are risk factors for developing eating disorders such as anorexia and bulimia and for exercise dependence/addiction. The best instructors will focus their instructional time on encouraging a “happy medium” for exercise and diet.
