This study is inspired by the crucial role of nutritional well-being as a basis for the physical fitness of elementary-aged children, facilitating their everyday physical activities without undue exhaustion. The objective of this research is to explore the connection between nutritional well-being (BMI/A) and fitness levels in students of the 4th, 5th, and 6th grades at SDI As-Syafa'ah. A quantitative correlational approach was employed, involving a sample of 43 students chosen using purposive sampling. The research tools consist of body measurements (height and weight) to assess nutritional status, along with various physical fitness assessments (sit-ups, hanging, vertical jump, 40-meter dash, and 600-meter run). The data analysis utilized the Pearson Product-Moment correlation test, facilitated by the SPSS software. Findings from the normality test indicated that the dataset followed a normal distribution, with a significance level of 0.802, which is greater than 0.05. The outcome revealed a meaningful positive correlation between nutritional wellbeing and physical fitness, presenting a Pearson Correlation coefficient of 0.869 and a significance level of 0.000, indicating it is less than 0.05. This suggests that a student's nutritional status being more optimal correlates with an enhancement in their physical fitness level.
