Introduction: In the present study, the effect of two types of resistance training - traditional and EMS on the levels of iris, glucose, insulin and insulin resistance in Inactive middle-aged womenwas compared.Material and Method: The study population consisted of 45 elderly women in Rasht with mean age (44.46 ± 3.42 years), weight (79 ± 7.89 kg), body mass index (34.4 ± 3.94 kg / height) and fat percentage (39.95 ± 4.50), which were randomly divided into three equal groups: 1) resistance-traditional (n = 15), 2) EMS (n = 15) and 3) control (n = 15) Were divided.After evaluating the anthropometric indices, the training groups performed their own training intervention for eight weeks.Results: The results of data analysis showed that the levels of irisin in the post-test compared to the pre-test showed a significant increase in both resistance-traditional and EMS training groups (P ≤ 0.05), which was higher in the EMS training group. (P≤ 05/0).Insulin and glucose levels and insulin resistance index also decreased significantly in post-test compared to pre-test in both training groups compared to control (P ≤ 0.05). While there was no significant difference between training groups (P ≥ 0.05).Conclusion: According to the results, it can be said that both traditional resistance training and EMS improved glucose metabolism and insulin resistance index in Inactive middle-aged womenby increasing irisin levels.
