“…Fortes et al [52] found similar results showing that BD and addiction to exercise are predictor for risk behaviors for EDs among Brazilian athletics athletes. Souza et al [3] observed the eating behaviour, the physical activity level and the presence of BD among women who practiced resistance training, verifying a prevalence of women with some distortion in body image and a linear association between BD and development of risk behavior for EDs.…”

“…This result can be explained by the fact that women suffer more body changes and hormonal variations along life, which can cause higher BD (34). Further, women are more influenced by sociocultural and psychological factors, such as social medias and judgment of other people [3]. For example, when a woman see a photo of a model in a social media, this situation has a power to take them to the adoption of pathological behavior to achieve that "ideal body" [45].…”

“…Body image can be defined as the perception that the individual has in mind about the size, structure, shape and contour of the body, as well as the feelings regarding to these characteristics and the parts that constitute it [1][2][3]. Fortes, Almeida and Ferreira [4] argue that body image can be focused to thinness, which refers to depreciation of body fat [5], and muscularity-driven, that correspond to the concern with muscle size and volume [1,4].…”

“…Body dissatisfaction (BD) is a disorder of the attitudinal component of body image and includes two spheres: the evaluative, that is characterized by the difference between the current and ideal body image; and affective, that refers to the suffering of the individual due to this difference [6]. BD is a multidimensional construct that can be associated isolated or joint way to weight, body shapes and appearance [1][2][3]. Alhtough the literature points out that women are more prone to developing BD related to thinness [7][8][9], some sutides show that men have a higher prevalence of muscle dysmorphia due to the obsessive goal to achieve muscle hypertrophy with minimal body fat [3,10].…”

This dissatisfaction can lead to the search for body image transformation through the use of drugs without medical prescription, inadequate nutritional planning, excessive physical exercise and invasive aesthetic procedures [1,11].…”

Objective: This study investigated the association between body dissatisfaction (BD), addiction to exercise and risk behaviors to eating disorders (EDs) among Brazilian exercise practitioners, besides comparing the variables according to sex, age group and modality. Methods: Participants were 60 exercice practitioners of fitness (n = 44) and crossfit (n = 16), with mean age of 26.58 ± 7.76 years. Data collection was conducted through Eating Attitudes Test-26 (EAT-26), Diagnosis of Orthorexia Questionnaire (ORTO-15), Body Shape Questionnaire (BSQ) and Scale of Dedication to Exercise (SDE). Data analysis was conducted through Kolmogorov-Smirnov and independent t tests, Pearson correlation, and Path Analysis (p < .05). Results: Main results showed the association between BD, addiction to exercise and risk behaviour for EDs. Further, individuals dissatisfied with their bodies showed higher level of addiction to exercise and risk behavior for EDs. Furthermore, women showed higher presence of BD than men, and fitness participants reported higher presence of addiction to exercise than crossfit practitioners. Conclusions: This study revealed that BD seems to be a determinant factor for risk behavior for ED's and addiction to exercise among fitness and crossfit particpants.

This cross-sectional study compared the indicative of Muscle dysmorphia in CrossFit athletes. Participants were 276 male and female CrossFit athletes with an average age of 28.56 ± 8.08 years. A questionnaire was used with questions about age, practice time and frequency of Crossfit practice, as well as the questionnaire of the Adonis complex. Data analysis was conducted through Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Mann-Whitney tests, and Spearman correlation (p<0.05). The adopted significance was p<0.05. The results showed that men obtained higher indicative of muscle dysmorphia in comparison to women as well as competitive athletes showed higher score than recreational athletes (p<0.05). It was found significant (p<0.05) and negative correlation of the indicative of muscle dysmorphia with training frequency (Rho=-0.51) among recreational athletes, and positive correlation (Rho=0.19) among competitors. It is concluded that being male and having a competitive profile are actors in the presence of Muscle dysmorphia in CrossFit athletes.

Introdução: Os transtornos alimentares são determinados por diversos fatores com altos níveis de complexidade que se correlacionam e estão envolvidos na continuidade da doença. São alterações graves no comportamento alimentar, no peso e na forma corporal causando prejuízos à saúde. Dentre estas disfunções, encontra-se a vigorexia, uma psicopatologia em que o indivíduo detecta muitos defeitos sobre sua autoimagem, levando-o a uma tortura psicológica. Objetivo: Apresentar os efeitos psicopatológicos e caracterizar o padrão alimentar dos indivíduos vigoréxicos. Métodos: Trata-se de um estudo do tipo transversal e para a elaboração do trabalho foram selecionados as informações e dados de maior relevância dos artigos, trabalhos de conclusão de curso, revistas científicas e livros sobre nutrição e psicologia, publicados nos últimos 26 anos. Resultados: Sobre os hábitos alimentares desses indivíduos, nota-se uma mudança radical: a dieta é composta por altos valores de proteínas e baixos valores de lipídeos. Os suplementos alimentares ricos em proteínas e aminoácidos são muito utilizados para desenvolver a almejada hipertrofia muscular, assim como os termogênicos que são conhecidos por reduzir a gordura corporal, além de envolver o uso de fármacos nesse processo também. Conclusão: A falta de divulgação desse tipo de transtorno e a carência de trabalhos publicados sobre o perfil dietético, requer uma investigação acerca da ocorrência desses fatos para a melhor compreensão da problemática.
