Before and after the experiment, the three groups undergo measurement in the tests of body mass index, 800 meter run-and-walk, sit-and-reach, one minute bent-knee sit-ups, and standing long jump. Two-way mixed design ANOVA was used to test whether the pre-test and post-test results of the three groups show significant effects. Results: There were significant increase in the results of the tests of body fat mass and 800 meter run-and-walk for Experiment Groups A and B(p<.05). But there were no significant increase in results of other physical fitness tests. Conclusion: Physical training through interval running-walking accompanied with diet education for 12 weeks could improve primary school boys’ performance on the results of 2 tests of body fat mass and 800 meter run-and-walk.
