Abstract Aim of the Study: This study aimed to compare the effects of Electro Muscle Stimulation (EMS) exercise on physical performance in sedentary women.
Methods: Our study was conducted with a total of 27 sedentary women, 12 EMS, and 15 controls, aged 19-24 years. The tests administered to the participants were the Modified Push-Up Test (MPU), Hand Grip Strength Test (HS), Bent Arm Hanging Test (BAH), Single Leg Hop Tests (SLHT) [single hop for distance (SH), triple jump for distance (TH) and cross triple jump for distance (CH), medial side triple jump for distance (MSTH)], Deep squat (DS), V-Sit Flexor Test (V-sit), Sit-Up Test and Biering Sorensen (Bie-sor) tests. All tests were repeated pre-mid-post and each test period was randomized with practice cards.

| Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS) | Device | Intervention 1: Exercise + EMS Intervention Type: Device (because EMS is applied using a device) Intervention Name: Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS) Description: Simultaneous electrical stimulation is applied to the lower extremity muscles using an EMS device. The application lasts for 20 minutes and is performed concurrently with the exercise protocol. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Lower extremity muscle strength | Change in lower extremity muscle strength assessed by functional performance tests at baseline, 4 weeks, and after 8 weeks of intervention | Baseline, 4 weeks and 8 weeks after intervention start |
