Individual sports and team sports have their own characteristic and require specific fitness level and optimum anthropometry component such as body composition to be fit in the sports. The purpose of this study to differentiate the physical fitness performance based on BMI of individual sport and team sport athletes. A total of 147 Terengganu junior male athletes aged 13 to 21 who are participate in the Malaysian Games participated different types of individual and team sports. BMI was distributed according to World Health Organization (WHO) standard as < 18.5 kg/m2 under-weight, 18.5-24.9 kg/m2 normal weight, 25-29.9 kg/m2 over weight and >3 0 kg/m2 obesity. Tests were used in this study is Sit and Reach (flexibility), Sit Up (upper muscle endurance), Maximum Push Up (upper muscular strength), Handgrip (handgrip strength), Predicted VO2max (cardiovascular), Standing Medicine ball Throw (upper body strength), 20 meter Sprint Test (speed), Vertical Jump (leg power), Stork Stand (balance), Standing Broad Jump (leg explosive power), and T test (agility). Result showing all test except sit up test and stork stand test have a significant difference between type of sport and the athlete's respectively BMI class. For summary, each type of sports with representative BMI class have their own specialities in physical fitness performance. More studies are needed to understand the complexity of this topic especially focusing on the recognize the specificity requirement of physical fitness on different type of sport and BMI class.

Background: Athletes are prepared to adapt their body composition to the their sports. Biomotor components such as agility and speed are certainly one of important components to support the performance of an athlete. It is necessary to know more about the suitability of body composition needed for each sport that can improve performance in athletes. This study aimed to determine the relationship between BMI, speed, and agility among athletes. Methods: This study used a literature review design to discuss the relationship between BMI, speed, and agility among athletes based on secondary data from published literature on Google Scholar and PubMed. The inclusion criteria used include: journals describing correlation between the body mass index, speed, and agility among athletes, journals published between 2015-2023. The exclusion criteria used include: excluding other articles if there are duplicates, excluding abstracts, theses, and dissertations. Results: Based on the results of a review of five studies that discussed body mass index on speed and agility in athletes, it was found that four journals stated that there were significant relationships between BMI, agility, and speed, but there was one journal which found an insignificant relationship between BMI and agility for male athletes but it was significant for female athletes. Conclusion: Agility and speed in athletes have a relationship with each BMI category. Athletes who were in the underweight BMI category would have better agility and speed compared to athletes who were in the overweight.
