Passion and Addiction in Sports and Exercise

This book presents an overview of three dimensions of passion and offers a new frame to contextualize exercise addition. The work addresses the misinterpretation of certain aspects of training (e.g., intensity, frequency, commitment) often related to addiction.
Passion and Addiction in Sports and Exercise is about the bright and dark aspects of sports and exercise behavior and revolves around two closely related yet distinct concepts. Passion is a joyful and healthy reflection of one’s enjoyment and dedication to an adopted sport or exercise. At the same time, exercise addiction is an obligatory and must-be-done training regimen. This book is the first to attempt to explain the significant differences between passion and addiction in sports and exercise, as well as the relationship between the two.
