Table 1: _Cont._Bone girth followed the same line as the basic anthropometric measurements for P and G positions when compared to the rest. P position had significant differences in bytstiloid girth compared to positions F, WP, and W. Bytstiloid girth also showed differences between G and W. Femur girth presented significant differences between P and WP and W, as well as between G and W.  
Regarding the breadth measures, P presented a larger relax arm breadth than W and WP. Calf and front tight breadths of P were also significantly larger compared to W, WP, and F. Concerning calf girth, G position presented larger measures than F and W. WP showed the lowest breadth of flexed and tensed arm compared with G and P. Finally, P was the position with the highest waist and gluteal breadth, presenting significant differences with W position in waist breadth and in gluteal breadth with WP position. Regarding the skinfolds, the P position again showed the most differences with the other groups. Significant differences were mainly observed when P was compared to W and F. P presented larger values in subscapular and bicipital compared to W. When comparing P to F, larger values were observed in P for bicipital and supraspinal skinfolds. As for the tight skinfold, the only difference found was between the W and F positions. Table 2 contains the description of three categories of BC recorded (muscle mass, bone mass, and fat mass) and some related indexes.
