Fatboybia occurs in dysfunctional individuals that say one thing then do another. Many times this behavior is accompanied by other symptoms that include: constant excuse making, lying, whining, and grandiose delusion about their importance to the world.
A more discerning criterion is distress. Fatboybians who are displaying a great deal of depression, anxiety, unhappiness, etc. would be thought of as exhibiting abnormal behavior because their own behavior distresses them, are actually just suffer from self loathing with the knowledge that they are missing workouts for no damn good reason. Unfortunately, many people are not aware of their own mental state, and while they may benefit from running, they feel no compulsion to do it. They wallow in self delusion and various forms of rationalization.
If a person is behaving in ways counter-productive to their own well-being, it is considered maladaptive.
Another criterion that has been suggested is that abnormal behavior violates the standards of society. When people do not follow the conventional social and moral rules of their society, the behavior is considered abnormal. However, the magnitude of the violation and how commonly it is violated by others must be taken into consideration. Missing a workout sometimes can help recovery, when preceded by over training.
Another element of abnormality is that abnormal behavior will cause social discomfort to those who witness such behavior. Smiling and pretending that its okay to miss workouts oscillates between denial and enabling. Ardent and disciplined members of society often offer a solution to those suffer from fatboybia by kicking them in the ass.
