A huge study on European children and adolescents’ overall fitness ranking. The best 6 nations are as follows: 1 Denmark, Netherlands 2 Finland, Sweden 3 Czechia, Iceland 4 Slovakia 5 Norway 6 Bulgaria Warning: Unlike the first 5, Bulgarian health care system is among the worst in Europe. They are also, according to studies, the saddest (in Europe), poorest (in EU) and Bulgaria’s the fastest shrinking nation in the world. Interesting notes - among reported nations: 1 Icelander and Bulgarian boys are the best at standing long jump 2 Slovakians have the highest handgrip strength (not only in Europe but probably in the world, since Europeans overall have the strongest handgrip according to other studies) 3 North Macedonians have the worst BMI scores (estimate of body fat) 4 Bulgarians and Danes have the best BMI scores 5 Montenegrin youngsters are the tallest in Europe (and the world currently) Sources: Supplementary images
