      <Abstract>Objective: This study was intended to evaluate perception of the young adult obese women towards weight training as a proper and useful modality as compared to walking.Study design: The questionnaire-based study was conducted in a weight management clinic in Maharashtra state, India. Obese women between 18 and 40 years of age during their first visit were studied for their perception about weight training. Results: There was no significant difference between the scores with walking and weight training indicating these as proper and useful modalitites of exercise. Conclusions : Our results clearly indicate that weight training is perceived to be an equally  proper and useful modality of exercise as compared with walking  among obese women . Further studies using larger sample size are required.</Abstract>
