Hypergymnasia

Hypergymnasia is a disorder characterized by excessive and compulsive exercise. A person suffering from hypergymnasia often has a disturbed body image and tries to achieve an impossible goal by exercising rigorously. Hypergymnasia is often coupled with anorexia nervosa or bulimia nervosa.

"Anorexia athletica" is used to refer to "a disorder for athletes who engage in at least one unhealthy method of weight control" [ [http://www.webmd.com/content/article/83/97765.htm "Activity Disorder: Too Much Little Of A Good Thing"] from WebMD] .
