Good health is not only fundamental to academic achievements, career development and a happy life, but also the basis of a nation＇s prosperity. Aiming at describing and analyzing the physical fitness condition of contemporary elite students in basic education in China, this research systematically analyzes the variation of health status of those students, in order to identify problems as early as possible.

The conclusions are as follows, the gender difference exists among the elite students in basic education in China, and female students are generally enjoying a better health than male students; there is no significant difference between urban and rural students; regional differences exist in that students from the west have the highest average physical fitness score, followed by students from the southeast, with students from the northeast scoring the lowest.
