Give any 2 strategies that an athlete, recovered from anorexia, would want to use to avoid having a relapse? How might either of these strategies be different for a male versus female athlete?
An athlete may want to focus on improving their endurance within their sport. As they eat more nutritious foods and regain their iron stores, protein and muscle mass, they will likely not feel as tired and will be able to perform their sport with less fatigue. A nutritious diet with the goal of enhancing athletic performance should be emphasized over their actual weight.
A female athlete will need to address her body image more in relation to her sport. She will need to become aware of the fact that a skinny physique does not ensure success in her chosen sport. She may want to be made aware of fellow athletes who have more healthy body sizes who are successful athletes.
