Abstract :

The aim of this study was to find out the influence of brisk walking and elliptical training on basal metabolic rate and resting pulse rate among sedentary women. To achieve the purpose, thirty (N=30) sedentary women were randomly selected and their age ranged between 30 and 40 years and they were assigned into three groups, brisk walking group (BWG), elliptical training group (ETG) and Control group (CG) consisting of 10 in each. After assessing the basal metabolic rate and resting pulse rate initially, the experimental groups underwent respective treatments for eight weeks.
