1.？ After retiring, the amount of training dropped sharply, leading to obesity.
Active athletes are generally slim, except for wrestling, weightlifting, shot put, javelin and a few other heavy categories, they are basically not particularly fat, and chubby ones hardly exist, because besides diet control, athletes have to do a lot of training every day, and table tennis is aerobic exercise, so most active table tennis players are well-proportioned and flexible.

After retirement, because there is no need for high-intensity training, muscle mass decreases, and usually aging will also reduce metabolism. Even if the diet is the same as before, it will still get fat because of the imbalance between intake and consumption, so many people are described as fat as gas.
2.？ Self-constitution and figure
Some table tennis players in active service, especially male players, will be slightly fat, which is caused by their natural physique and figure, with thick bones and relatively high muscle and fat content. This kind of figure tends to look fat and strong, and it will obviously get fat if you are not careful or injured. This kind of fat man is born and can't be trained to be tall and thin.
Counting table tennis players, Liu, Wang Tao and Wang Hao all look chubby. They look rounder when they are in service and fatter after retirement. These are all caused by personal physique and have nothing to do with table tennis weight loss or not.
3.？ Anaerobic exercise in training
As we all know, anaerobic exercise increases muscles, while aerobic exercise consumes fat. Although table tennis players don't need frequent and high-intensity muscle training like weightlifters, discus throwers and javelin throwers, they also need to increase their muscles to increase the strength and speed of attack, so they also need strength training. In the process of strength training, that is, anaerobic exercise will quickly consume glycogen, which will make people feel hungry and eat more food. Under normal high-intensity training, these intakes will not lead to intake exceeding consumption, thus making people fat. However, if athletes are physically edema, or are in special physical periods such as injuries and physiological periods, they will easily appear fatter than before.

In either case, most table tennis players are in line with their slim figure. Table tennis is also a weight loss exercise, which varies from person to person.
