Summary

The objective of this study is to compare the effects of 8 months of yoga and walking exercise training on weight-related body fat and metabolic biomarkers in women. Participants will be randomly assigned to either a yoga group or a walking group. The yoga group will undergo 90-minute sessions, 3 times per week, while the walking group will engage in one-hour sessions, 6 times per week. Physical and metabolic markers will be measured at baseline and after 8 months of intervention.
