Even though the Mbojo ethnic group won the fewest medals, the ratio of medal wins was the highest. Regarding the age factor, the majority of the sample of teenagers and those in their 20 were silver medalists, and the majority of the sample in their 30 was gold medalists. The majority of underweight samples were gold medalists, the majority of ideal body samples were bronze medalists, the majority of overweight samples were silver medalists, and the obese samples were only participants. From an anthropometric perspective, it can be seen that athletes with ideal body weight, normal body fat, low subcutaneous fat, and proportional skeletal muscle account for the majority of medal winners.
