Toxic athleticism

behavior in which the motivation for sport is presented as 'just for fun,' while in reality it holds a disproportionately high importance in a person's identity and serves as a means of self-validation. It is characterized by:
- excessive involvement in sports
- a high proportion of unusual sports that are socially admirable
- covert comparison
- false modesty or inaccurate perception of social norms regarding sport
- sport is a dominant topic of conversation
