In that case, then a surgeon is an athlete. Or a mechanic. A "skill" is something specific to the sport in question. Shooting a basketball is a skill. Throwing a javelin is much less so.
Actually, I'm saying "athletic" is more specific than "physicial". But, again, "non-athletic" is not a pejorative in my usage.
Which shows us that you also know nothing about throwing the javelin. Have you ever tried to throw one?

What you're saying doesn't seem to have any counterpart in reality. Perhaps you'd like to tell us what you mean by "athletic."
