    There is such a thing. In fact it's not unusual to see people who suffer from anorexia doing HOURS of exercise (it's part of anorexic behavior). Unless someone is competing athletically (skating, swimming, etc) an hour or two of exercise per day should be more than sufficient enough. Anything more is usually excess.
