To achieve the purpose thirty obese college women between the age of 20-25 years were selected. By using BMI (Body Mass Index) technique from Govt. Girls Degree College, Kota, Saharanpur. They were divided into two groups and designated as experimental group and control group. The experimental group was given training of exercise programme of walking for a period of eight weeks in morning for six days in a week. Sunday was weekly rest of the experimental group. Where as control group was not arranged any specified training programme rather than their routine physical activities programme.
