Introduction: In India, rising childhood obesity and sedentary lifestyles contribute to poor physical fitness, heightening the risk of cardiovascular and other health issues. With a significant portion of children failing to meet physical activity recommendations and engaging in excessive screen time, there is an urgent need for effective interventions. Indigenous activities (IAs), deeply rooted in cultural traditions, offer a unique approach to improving physical fitness while preserving cultural heritage. This pilot study explores the impact of a 4-week IA training program on the physical fitness and body composition of Indian children aged 12 to 14 years. Methodology: Sixty-seven students from a boys' school in West Bengal were initially assessed for physical fitness. Based on their scores, 45 students were selected and divided into three groups: a control group and two experimental groups.
