Although traditional treatment of body image problems has consisted primarily of cognitive-behavioral therapy (Cash, 1995), more recently, exercise has become more popular as a treatment modality.

(2001) found that participants participating in bench step aerobics or a combination of bench step aerobics and resistance training improved in V[O.sup.2] peak, resting heart rate, and percent fat. The participants who incorporated resistance training into their regime also improved in muscular strength and endurance.
