Book excerpt: Maladaptive exercise (e.g., compensatory and/or driven exercise) is a common eating disorder (ED) behavior yet, some individuals with EDs only engage in adaptive exercise (e.g., non-compensatory or driven exercise). Historically, cognitive behavioral therapy for EDs (CBT-E) targets reducing maladaptive exercise but does not address adaptive exercise. Thus, research is limited on how CBT-E impacts both adaptive and maladaptive exercise in individuals with EDs. The current study sought to characterize and examine how assessor-rated adaptive and maladaptive exercise and objectively measured physical activity changed over a 12-week CBT-E treatment among adults with transdiagnostic binge eating and restrictive eating (N = 30) that did and did not engage in maladaptive exercise at the start of treatment (n=13 non-maladaptive exercise group and n=17 maladaptive exercise group). Adaptive and maladaptive exercise were measured via the Eating Disorder Examination Interview and objectively measured physical activity (e.g., step count and minutes of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA)) was measured via a wrist-worn fitness tracker before and after treatment. The amount of overall adaptive exercise did not significantly change for both groups over treatment, but the overall amount of maladaptive exercise significantly decreased over treatment for those in the maladaptive exercise group. Step count did not significantly change over treatment for both groups. Individuals in the non-maladaptive exercise group demonstrated a significant increase in minutes of MVPA over treatment. Step count and minutes of MVPA increases were not associated with ED symptom reduction over treatment for both groups. Both groups endorsed they perceived the fitness tracker influenced them to engage in physical activity, not binge eat, and not restrict food intake. These results suggest that clinicians that wish to significantly increase the amount of adaptive physical activity, step count, or minutes of MVPA in patients with transdiagnostic binge eating may need to take on supplemental treatment approaches in addition to CBT-E or implement augmentations to traditional CBT-E treatment to meet physical activity related goal.
