Background - Lack of exercise cause of death, disease and disorders across the world. Involvement in exercise is directly linked to participant’s perception of exercise benefits, motivation and barriers preventing exercise. With regard to intrinsic benefit of exercise, it can be health promotion, self-confidence or can be extrinsic such as promotion of social interaction, attendance in comfortable environment. In case of post-partum women barriers are related to child care, responsibility, and financial inability. Women who maintain or increase their sport and exercise from pre pregnancy to postpartum period experience better well-being compared to women who do not. Physical activity throughout postpartum period is important to mother’s health as pregnancy is a time when risk of becoming obese is high. Therefore, there is need for reliable and valid tool that can identify and measure perceived benefits and barriers of exercise for target population. Objective - To study benefits and barriers in post-partum using EBBS questionnaire. (Exercise benefits and barriers scale). Method -The subjects of the prospective cohort study were women who are primiparous and reside in Pune, Maharashtra, India. Using conventional sampling method, 100 primiparous women were included in the study with age range of 21 to 35 years and both normal delivery and C-section delivery were included. This study was done by using a standardized validated questionnaire. Results- This research looked at 100 participants out of whom 70% were C-section participants and 30% were normal delivery participants. From this study we found out C-section participants perceive most barriers and benefits and normal delivery participants perceive exercise benefit and barriers less as compared to LSCS participants. Conclusion- In this study we found that, the most common exercise beliefs during pregnancy and many environmental, intrapersonal, and interpersonal barriers were identified in primiparous women’s.
