Yes. Being obsessed with exercise and burning calories is related to having an eating disorder. It is related because you are obsessing about how much you have eaten and how much you are burning.

This depends on your intentions. If you are going to the gym to lose weight and are obsessed with body image this would indicate an eating disorder. However if you are going to the gym as a hobby, personal interest or to better your health it is most likely just a strong passion for fitness.

Only if you are exercising in conjunction with disordered eating. If you're starving yourself while exercising a lot, then yes, that's disordered. But just enjoying exercise or exercising for healthy weight loss is fine.

Actually, yes, it is. Sometimes it's associated with purge-typea anorexia or atypical bulimia nervousa. But more often than not, when you avoid crucial activities, and especially so plan your day around exercise, it falls under compulsive exercise.

Yes, it could be depending on the situation, like if it is because you want to lose weight then it is definitely not healthy to be doing for that reason.

It can be. Overworking out and looking for cheat ways and tricks to get your goal body in shorter times can lead to disordered eating. Overexercising is also a type of purging mechanism and all of which might feel good at the time like you've found an easier way to hit your goals but long term its so unsustainable your body will start to kick back and you meet even get backward progress. I truly suggest getting a stable routine and not isolating yourself from social situations due to living in the gym with your mind and thoughts as that can lead you down the wrong path.
