A proposito di questo titolo

The Health, Hope and Happiness podcast continues it's three-part series with the Emily Program discussing healthy eating habits for athletes. Today, Brittany Davis, the Midwest senior regional director, and Megan Merrells, a registered dietician, discuss bigorexia, and how this eating disorder affects male athletes.

Although the term may sound new, 'bigorexia'—or muscle dysmorphia—is a growing mental health issue among male athletes. These are individuals who, despite being muscular or in peak physical condition, believe they’re never big or strong enough. Many continue to lift excessively, rely on supplements, and in some cases, even purge food in pursuit of an unattainable ideal.

While eating disorders in female athletes have been extensively studied and discussed, male eating disorders often fly under the radar—overlooked by parents, coaches, and even athletic trainers. In today’s world of strength training, performance enhancement, and image-driven social media, it’s time we shift the conversation.

In this episode, you'll hear a unique perspective on how male athletes view themselves—and learn how to spot the signs when self-image becomes self-destructive. It’s an important and eye-opening conversation you won’t want to miss."
