Men, boys and ED's - Dr. Russell Delderfield

Please remember that no episode of the MyoMinds podcast can be used as a replacement for medical advice and/or care.

Disclaimer - In this episode we talk about eating disorders, disordered eating, and body image issues. Some of this might be upsetting for listeners.

In this episode of the MyoMinds Podcast I speak with Dr. Russell Delderfield who works at the University of Bradford and specialises in eating disorders (ED's) in men and boys.

Listen to the full podcast to hear us talk about:

• The ins and outs of eating disorders in men
• Muscularity oriented disordered eating and body image concerns
• Seeing the body as separate from the self
• The potentially disordered behaviours underlying the fitness community
• Societal pressures put on men
• The role of masculinity in male ED's

The Devil's Advocate question: Don’t men with ED’s just need to man up?
