Are professional chess players considered athletes?
Sure there's the fast twitch type of pro game, but there's also the likes of Hearthstone which requires no fast twitch, muscle memory, reflex action ability. It's all or nothing when it comes to video games, and I don't think minimal physical exertions required even for the fps and fighter pro-gaming can be called atheletic.
