We are a group of clinicians and researchers facilitating the incorporation and management of exercise in eating disorder treatment in a safe and evidence based manner.

• As many as four in five individuals with eating disorders engage in dysfunctional exercise behaviours.

• Dysfunctional exercise does not have to be strenuous exercise (like running or high-intensity gym sessions) but can include incidental movement and activities of daily living.

• Engaging in unmodified exercise without adequate nutrition during eating disorder treatment can lead to a host of negative and psychological complications.

• The Safe Exercise at Every Stage Guideline is a tool to support clinicians navigate this complex behavior and work with their patients to help them find life long fulfilling relationships with movement across their lives.
