Rare addiction
Ex-Bayern star Lizarazu makes illness public
Ex-Bayern star Bixente Lizarazu has made it public that he suffers from a rare disease. The diagnosis: muscle dysmorphia.
"I'm ill," said the French world champion in the newspaper Tribune du Dimanche, "I have to surpass myself, push myself and let out all the energy that I have inside me in masses. I'm 54 years old and I still have to feel like an athlete. If you stop training overnight, you risk falling into depression."
Lizarazu suffers from muscle dysmorphia, better known as muscle addiction! The condition is a self-perception disorder. Those affected perceive the development of their own muscles as inadequate. Even if the muscles are already more developed than average.

Lizarazu therefore still looks well-trained today. The six-time champion, Champions League winner and winner of the World Cup surfed, competed in skeleton competitions and practiced Brazilian Jiu Jitsu until he won the European Championship title. And the Frenchman has also been going full throttle in cycling for years - and all this apparently just to come close to doing himself justice.
