Most of us in white-collar jobs lead highly sedentary lifestyles with little exercise. Here’s a simple guide to getting fit for the busy Indian woman.
Sedentary lifestyles are common today – we sit for long hours, take the car everywhere and never climb the stairs if we can help it! Working women in India moreover, are often over-burdened with dual responsibilities, and women’s health ends up being the casualty.
Even if one doesn’t have 45 minutes to head to the gym or swimming pool, there are simple exercises that can be easily woven into a regular working day, perhaps in 2 short bursts of 10-15 mins each.

Dear Women’s Web Community Member,
You may have wondered at our being on the quieter side during the last couple of months. Thank you for your patience, and we wanted to come back to you with a detailed note on what’s been happening at our end of things.
When we first began Women’s Web, as a blog from one woman’s desk along with a few like-minded souls, little could we have imagined the heights that it would soar to. Over the years, Women’s Web has published over 20000 stories (almost all by women), empowered countless women with the ideas, community and resources to chase their dreams, employed hundreds of women in core and project-based roles, and in the process, emerged as the OG women’s community in India. It has also inspired many others to build communities of a similar nature, all enabling women (and other-underrepresented groups) in their own ways.
