Today’s guest is Winnie Yip, a bodybuilder, coach, and researcher, joining me to break down her upcoming study on disordered eating behaviours among bodybuilders and powerlifters, and what the findings mean for athletes, clients, and coaches alike.
In this episode, we explore:
What disordered eating actually means, and how it differs from a diagnosed eating disorder
Why cognitive restraint, emotional eating, and uncontrolled eating emerged as key predictors
How the culture around bodybuilding and powerlifting can normalize problematic food behaviors
Why the answer is more nuanced than “the sport causes the problem”
What the coach’s playbook should look like: educate, monitor, transition, and refer
