Athletes are people who compete in sports that involve physical strength, speed or endurance. The use of the word “athlete” is controversial when it comes to many popular games like golf and auto racing because they do not require a lot of athleticism. Most professional athletes have developed physiques due largely from extensive training sessions with strict exercise routines accompanied by a disciplined diet plan. Webster’s definition for our term today was originally defined as one who participates in field sport activities such as hunting or fishing but has come to encompass those involved in more modern-day competitive sporting events too!
