    I am not afflicted by such an addiction. While I do casually indulge, I assure that I can quit at any time.

    Ahh, Big Willie from back in the Jarhead days. Two hours a day MINIMUM at the gym and the silly bastard lost track of his neck sometime during our time at Stinger School. I didn't stand a fucking chance that time he ambushed me in the hall and put me in a blood choke... man am I glad we're friends and he was just fuckin' around.

    addiction is a physical and/or psychological dependence but is that necessarily a bad thing if the addiction is something that benefits you? i would say if it negatively affects your life and the lives of those around you would make it a bad thing. even though exercise is good for your physical and mental health if done the right way. some of these stars work hard to keep the bodies they have and those that compete in marathons put in a lot of hard work.

    Not really a "addiction" to me IF people don't take it excessively like i dont think nothing of sumone going to the gym a few times a week, thats alright, and not really a problem HOWEVER when people get to the point of going to the gym a few times a DAY then i consider that a little weird and i think the person maybe addicted, especially if thats all the person talks, cares, or thinks about i think the person may need to lay back and relax his exercising habits, but this is just my opinion

    Exercise (paired with decent eating habits) so as to try to stay in shape and be as healthy as possible is a good thing. But believe it or not, there is a way to blow it completely out of proportion, and be overly obsessed with constant exercise for some very silly and vain reasons, leading some to set some unrealistic goals along these lines. Honestly, some of these diet/health/exercise equipment ads are corny, at best, and crazy, at worst. I can understand the desire to shed some unwanted pounds for the sake of health. But then again, gaunt and bony isn't exactly the picture of health, either. My point is: anyone who is reasonable in his/her endeavors to be on the road to healthy living in any way possible (without overdoing it) can't go wrong.

    I'm not addicted to exercise and there are many flavors of exercise I downright hate (running, skiing, and rock climbing are too much like work) But I like to walk...fast... especially when the view and weather are good. I like to use my treadmill while listening to great music. And I love to dance. Is dancing one of the categories here? Because that's the one kind of exercise I've always been addicted to. I'm not all that young anymore, but I can literally dance all night.

    I wouldn't mind if I got mildly addicted to this (goodness knows I need it!), but not to "creepy body-builder" lengths.

    Yes its sooo strange to want to look good and feel good! I guess this can become an addiction I mean my god it seems these days everything can be an addiction! but I have never had this addiction..its hard enough for me to roll out of bed at 630 and get on the treadmill.

    I don't think jogging is helping me stay in shape at all. Last night, I was breathing so hard when I got to the McDonalds, I could hardly eat my double quarter pounder with cheese...

    In Castlebees terms,I'm glad I only have a "habit".Especially in power building sports (weight training),it's counter-productive to over train.There are exercise addicts,and while some of them may look good,others have that strange over-exercised look.Boney with tone?

    As a former gym class (oh, GOD must we play dodge ball AGAIN) rebel, I have never been burdened with this compulsion. However, I do see the value in developing – not so much an extreme addiction but a moderate habit.

    I think it definitely can become a problem if a person overdoes it. A little bit of exercise never hurt anyone that doesn't have an underlying health problem. I think before anybody starts any kind of a workout program, they should consult their doctor beforehand to see if they're even able to do it.

    o_O Yes, because wanting to stay strong, fast, and healthy definitely falls within the realm of "strange". It can be an addiction, but it sure beats snorting cocaine during "coffee breaks".
