Conclusion: Based on this article we conclude that the education channels for athletes' nutritional knowledge are not broadened, the eating habits of athletes are not good, the team has lack of professional sports nutritionists to monitor athletes' diet status, to correct bad eating habits, establish a dietary nutrition analysis system for athletes, carry out personalized energy balance and dietary guidance for athletes, and implement scientific meals.
