This study conducted 12-week walking with obese middle-aged women and compared and analyzed its effects on body composition and inflammatory markers. Finally, the following results were obtained. First, after application of walking to obese middle-aged women, their body composition showed significant decreases in weight(measurement period p<.001, group×period p<.001), %body fat(measurement period p<.001, group×period p<.001), and LBM(measurement period p<.01, group×period p<.01), suggesting positive results. Second, after application of walking to obese middle-aged women, their inflammatory markers showed significant decreases or increases in hs-CRP(measurement period p<.001, group×period p<.01), TNF-α(inter-group p<.05, measurement period p<.001, group×period p<.01), IL-6(inter-group p<.05, measurement period p<.05, group×period p<.01), and Adiponectin(inter-group p<.05, measurement period p<.05, group×period p<.01), suggesting positive results. Based on this result, regular walking may prevent a metabolic syndrome by decreasing weight and %body fat in obese middle-aged women. Moreover, it showed an effective decrease or increase in inflammatory markers that can cause all kinds of chronic diseases and may be effective for preventing lifestyle diseases. Since walking can be done anytime and anywhere in an easy and economical way and help obese middle-aged women reduce their weight without giving exceeding burden to joints, it can be strongly recommended. Accordingly, further researches on walking and diet should classify walking intensity into low intensity, moderate intensity, and high intensity and examine what walking intensity is the most effective. Based on this result, human body’s metabolic energy system should be investigated.
