With regressive analysis it is proved that the predictorical system of variables for the percentage of body composition (the whole quantity of body fat, water and muscles) is statistically significantly connected with the criteria defined as general motorical factor and with that it is described that 39 % of boys and 34 % of girls have the same variables.
