Abstract This study investigated the influence of physical activity challenges on the Movement Competency Training performance of first-year college students at the Bicol State College of Applied Sciences and Technology (BISCAST) during the 2025-2026 school year. Utilizing a descriptive-associational-correlational research design, the study aimed to assess the levels of challenges specifically in content knowledge, learning environment, physiological adaptation, and motivation and their relationship to student performance in physical fitness, locomotor and non-locomotor exercises, basic resistance training, and healthy eating habits. The respondents were of 171 first-year students, representing a total enumeration of the population of selected programs. Data were gathered through a validated survey questionnaire to measure challenges and a 40-item teacher-made test to evaluate movement competency training performance. Statistical analysis involved were Frequency Count, Percentage Technique, Weighted Mean, Mean, Standard Deviation, Performance Level, Pearson Product-Moment Correlation Coefficient, Coefficient of Determination and Chi-square Test of Independence. A significant relationship was found between challenges and movement competency training performance, indicating that as challenges increased, movement competency scores significantly decreased. It also concluded that while students possessed baseline fitness awareness, intellectual challenges were the most significant predictors of poor physical performance. Furthermore, a specialized lesson guide was developed using the ADDIE model to enhance pedagogical support and overcome identified challenges in Movement Competency Training Performance.
