Most people assume sleep apnea only affects those who are overweight or inactive. But in reality, athletes—especially those who rely heavily on strength and power—may be at higher risk than would be expected, something Dr. Pak Nimitpornsuko, otolaryngologist (https://smtvj.com/4sZBq4), often sees in his work with athletes.
1. Why does neck size matter?
The core problem in sleep apnea is narrowing of the airway during sleep. One surprisingly accurate indicator is neck circumference.
* Higher-risk range:�Men with neck circumference over 17 inches (43 cm)�Women with neck circumference over 16 inches (40 cm)
* Muscle vs. fat �The body doesn’t distinguish whether the airway is compressed by fat or muscle.�Athletes with thick neck and shoulder muscles—for example weightlifters, football players and bodybuilders—may experience airway collapse when those muscles fully relax during deep sleep.
2. What else can cause sleep apnea in athletes?
Neck size is only part of the story. Other risk factors include:
* Facial and jaw structure�A small jaw or short chin (often genetic) means less space in the throat — even if you’re lean and fit.
* Certain supplements or hormones�Some substances used to enhance muscle mass may thicken soft tissue in the airway.
* Overtraining and extreme fatigue�Heavy training loads can cause deeper muscle relaxation during sleep, making airway obstruction more likely.
3. Warning signs athletes shouldn’t ignore
* Waking up still tired, even after getting enough sleep
* Daytime sleepiness
* Drop in training performance or unusually slow recovery
* A bed partner notices loud snoring, choking, or gasping during sleep
⚠️ Why this matters for athletes: untreated sleep apnea directly affects the heart and blood vessels and interferes with growth hormone release, which is crucial for muscle repair and recovery. In other words, it can hold back both your health and your performance without you even knowing it.
🩺 If you train hard, sleep testing matters. Athletes who recognize these signs should consider a sleep test to rule out sleep apnea.

A medical consultation can help determine whether this approach is appropriate.
