Visualize Healthy Male Weight Across the Globe
There are statistics available about adult height across the globe. As there is a direct relationship between adult height and adult healthy weight, visualizing a map of male adult height helps understanding which countries are favored, and which countries are unfavored, with the currently available olympic single-handed dinghies, which favor medium and heavy weight sailors. This is the map for adult males, but a similar pattern can be found for females. Source: https://elifesciences.org/articles/13410
