They showed higher BMI the sailors with higher low fat diet adherence, higher experience, higher ranking position and Radial’s sailors. Under-16 sailors showed less competitive anxiety. Overweight sailor got less cognitive anxiety. Sailors who trained more times per week got best results. Sailors with higher BMI will get best results with strong wind because they will keep the boat horizontal more easily. Radial’s sailors have higher BMI due to their age. Under-16 sailors show less competitive anxie- ty due to lower demand for results. Overweight sailor show less cognitive anxiety due to lower expectations. Sailors who train more times per week get best results. Low fat Mediterranean diet not seem conditioned compe- titive anxiety in sailors. Sailing performance seems to be conditioned by sailor weight, wind conditions, training frequency and experience.
