Motivation and physical fitness of a teacher are the most important things in improving the performance of physical education teachers, even teachers who have been certified. A physical education teacher must have good fitness to improve his performance.

Based on calculations, the influence coefficient of motivation on teacher performance is 0.194. t-count value of 2.124> t-table of 1.984. The effect of physical fitness on teacher performance is 0.376. t-count value of 4.913> t-table of 1.984. Effect of motivation on physical fitness, amounting to 0.298. t-count value of 3.349> t-table of 1.984. The results of the study concluded that certified teacher performance in dominant physical education subjects was directly influenced positively by motivation and physical fitness.
