A longitudinal investigation of performance and injury outcomes associated with disordered eating in elite athletes
Disordered eating should not be considered as either normal or necessary to improve athletic performance, but rather a potential pathway towards injuries and absences from training and/or competition. These findings highlight a need for future research investigating outcomes associated with disordered eating across more specific aspects of performance and injury.
