The skelic index of Asians and Europeans is typically higher than in Africans. (The length of torso in relation to the length of limbs). Or in other words cacs and asians got relatively shorter legs and shorter arms even if they the same height as a Black man. Having a high skelic index helps in certain sports and and having a low skelic index helps in other sports. It's all about leverage. Gymnists benefit from shorter limbs. Runners benefit from longer ones. A white dude or asian can still have long limbs like a black man and a black man can still have short limbs like a white dude or asian but the frequency is just higher that it will be the other way around, thus you see more Blackletes dominating events where longer limbs benefit and you see more Asians and White people competing in events where longer torso benefits more.

:ohhh:
