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.
