Participating in sports can be a great way for teens to remain healthy and active. But sports teams are a small-scale version of society, consisting of people with the same concerns and issues as the rest of society. Just as teens will compare themselves to an image on TV, athletes will also make unhealthy body comparisons in sports environments. These comparisons can be to professional athletes, competitors, or teammates. Some sports, such as gymnastics, wrestling, figure skating, and boxing, require a certain look or to be in a certain weight class, pressuring athletes toward eating disorders.
