每天摄入多少卡路里,又需要做多少运动才能消耗掉?这成了不少健身达人每日的必备话题。但如果你因此过度纠结,可能已经患上了“运动暴食症”。

Exercise bulimia refers to the compulsive behaviour in which people count the calories ingested during a meal, and then tailor a workout to burn off the same number of calories.
“运动暴食症”指的是人们计算每餐摄入的卡路里,之后对锻炼进行调整,以燃烧掉相同数量的卡路里的强迫行为。
Exercise bulimia is believed to afflict several million American women and a smaller number of men, few of whom are thought to seek professional help. Exercise bulimics run themselves into the ground to expend the “excess” calories they consume.
美国数百万女性饱受运动暴食症的困扰,男性受此困扰的人数要少些。很少有人因此寻求专业帮助。运动暴食症患者做大量锻炼活动,以消耗掉他们摄入的“过量”卡路里。
It would not be unusual for an exercise bulimic, for example, to take two hour-long exercise classes a day in addition to running for 40 minutes, swimming for half an hour and biking for an hour.
运动暴食症患者有时会一天参加两小时健身课程,此外还要跑步40分钟,游泳半小时,还要骑行一小时,这种情况并不少见。
