Background: Physical activity plays a critical role in supporting the physical development and overall health of elementary school-aged children. Among the factors believed to influence physical activity are gross motor skills and levels of physical fitness. Study Purpose: This study seeks to examine the relationship between gross motor skills and physical fitness and the physical activity levels of Indonesian elementary students. Material and Methods: A non-experimental quantitative design was employed, utilizing a correlational approach to investigate the associations among variables. The study involved a purposive sample of 20 students. Results: The analysis revealed no statistically significant relationships at the 0.05 significance level. These findings indicate that gross motor skills and physical fitness do not have a direct impact on students’ physical activity. It is possible that other factors exert a stronger influence, underscoring the importance of exploring alternative determinants of physical activity in children. Conclusion: A broader and more integrative strategy is required to effectively enhance physical activity among elementary school students.
