Experts feel that a potentially dangerous obsession with bodybuilding is rising among men in the recent times. Muscle dysmorphia is the condition that is just the opposite of anorexia that would make the people suffering from it to believe that they do not have enough muscles. This disorder is fondly known as bigorexia but only fewer facts are available about this condition, as medical practitioners recognized it only in 1997 by doctors. .
If you thought anorexia was bad, well so is bigorexia. Its when you think you dont have enough muscle and want to get bigger(ripped). This situation is mostly on guys who are bodybuilders, they want to presume and show off that there strong. Some of these men over do their workouts by hitting the gym 6 days a week for 6 hours. Bigorexia is a bad disorder you shouldn't want to become addicted in doing. This is basically the opposite of anorexia, because these guys do eat but just make sure they burn all the calories they ate, and are forced to workout to get stronger. Because as men they want to precisely show that they can do anything(lift).
Men are just like women when it comes to their image. They think they have to look a certain way.
