Teaching fundamental motor skills is an important principle in childhood. Unfortunately, overweight and obese children show significant delays in these skills. Research in the field of fundamental motor skills and body composition has been neglected. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of an 8-month fundamental motor skill intervention based on a cognitive motor environment on the body composition and motor performance of children with low economic status. The population of this study was male children aged 6-8 years, from which 118 children were randomly selected and divided into two intervention and control groups. The instruments used in this study included Movement Assessment Battery of Children, standard weight balance scale for measuring weight, stadiometer for measuring height, and bioelectrical impedance body composition device for measuring fat mass (FM), fat-free mass (FFM), and body composition (BMI). Initially, motor performance, body composition measures, height, weight, and BMI were recorded as pre-test scores of the groups. The training period consisted of 8 months, two sessions per week, and 30 minutes of activity. After the 8-month training intervention, post-tests of motor performance, body composition, height, weight, and BMI were taken from the subjects. The statistical data showed an improvement in motor performance (P=0.001), a significant decrease in fat mass (P=0.001) and body composition (P=0.001), and a significant increase in lean mass (P=0.001) as a result of eight months of fundamental motor skills training. The findings of the present study showed that this intervention can improve motor performance and delay the increase in FM. Overall, it is suggested that this approach be used to prevent obesity and emphasize the importance of measuring body composition in children. Keywords: Fundamental motor skills, motivational-expertise climate, body composition, children with low economic status.
