Background:Obesity is a major public health problem associated with increased risk of metabolic syndrome, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, diabetes mellitus and reduced quality of life. Physical activity is one of the most important non-pharmacological interventions for obesity management. Brisk walking is a simple aerobic exercise, whereas yogasana provides integrated physical, metabolic and psychophysiological benefits.To compare the effect of 30-minute brisk walking and selected yogasana on anthropometric and clinical parameters in moderately obese individuals over a period of three months.A total of 80 moderately obese individuals were selected and divided into two groups of 40 participants each. Group A performed brisk walking for 30 minutes daily, 5 days per week, for 3 months. Group B performed selected yogasana for 30 minutes daily, 5 days per week, for 3 months. Both groups showed statistically significant improvement in body weight, BMI, waist circumference and waist-hip ratio after 3 months. Brisk walking showed slightly greater reduction in body weight and BMI, while selected yogasana showed comparatively better improvement in waist circumference and waist-hip ratio. No serious adverse event was observed in either group.Both 30-minute brisk walking and selected yogasana are effective lifestyle interventions for moderately obese individuals. Brisk walking may be more useful for weight and BMI reduction, whereas yogasana may provide additional benefit in central obesity, flexibility, stress regulation and overall body-mind balance. A combined protocol of brisk walking and yogasana may be more beneficial for long-term obesity management.
