Exercise pants for women

Question

Is it permissible for a woman to wear pants while exercising? Is there a difference between a married woman and an unmarried woman?

Answer

Dear …!
It is permitted to wear pants for the purpose of exercise. Those who are careful about their mitzvah observance wear a skirt over the pants.
There is no halachic distinction between married women and unmarried girls in this regard.
