Background: Physical fitness (PF) levels correlate with health hallmarks at all ages. In this study, w aimed to determine the PF level of schoolchildren from the Campania Region (Italy) through health-related PF (HRPF) components, taking into account body weight and sport practice (SP). Methods: PF level was determined in 565 schoolchildren aged 10−13 (11.7 ± 1.0 yrs; m: 353, f: 212) using some of the Eurofit battery tests. Results: 77% children practiced sport, boys more than girls (86% vs. 63%, respectively; p < 0.05). Boys performed better than girls (p < 0.05) in the Plate Tapping, Standing Broad Jump, Bent-Arm Hang, and 10 × 5 m Shuttle Run tests; girls performed better in the Sit-and-Reach Test (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Overweight/obese status negatively affects the muscular strength of lower limbs, even if it progressively improves during growth. SP was revealed to be a determinant in performance only in some PF tests, likely due to the heterogeneous training level among boys and girls who practice sport.
身体素质（PF）水平与各年龄段的健康特征相关。本研究旨在通过健康相关的 PF（HRPF）成分，考虑体重和运动实践（SP），确定来自意大利坎帕尼亚地区的学童的 PF 水平。
使用一些 Eurofit 电池测试，确定了 565 名年龄在 10-13 岁（11.7 ± 1.0 岁；男：353，女：212）的学童的 PF 水平。
77%的儿童参加运动，男孩比女孩多（分别为 86%和 63%，p < 0.05）。男孩在触板、站立跳远、屈臂悬挂和 10×5 米穿梭跑测试中的表现优于女孩（p < 0.05）；女孩在坐立前伸测试中的表现优于男孩（p < 0.05）。
超重/肥胖状态会对下肢肌肉力量产生负面影响，即使在生长过程中会逐渐改善。SP 仅在某些 PF 测试中被证明是一个决定因素，这可能是由于参加运动的男孩和女孩的训练水平存在差异。
