Abstract

The research aims to identify the effect of “a training program using electrical muscle stimulation (EMS) on improving some physical variables for female students in fencing.” The researcher used the experimental method with an experimental design for one experimental group, following pre-inter , and post-measurements due to its suitability to the nature of the research. It also represents a community The research included (17) female students in the fourth year, specializing in fencing training at the Faculty of Physical Education for Girls - Helwan University for the academic year 2023-2024. The researcher also selected the research sample intentionally from the fourth year students majoring in fencing at the Faculty of Physical Education for Girls - Helwan University for the year. University 2023-2024, which is (5) female students as a basic sample representing the experimental group.

Additionally, a survey sample of 12 students was chosen from both within and outside the primary research sample to conduct statistical analyses on the variables under investigation. The findings indicated that the training program using EMS had a positive impact on the functional development of the physical variables under study, as evidenced by statistical significance and improvement ratios between pre-test and post-test measurements favoring the post-test for some study variables.

One of the key recommendations was to integrate EMS training with conventional training methods, given the high efficacy demonstrated by this combined approach in certain research tests and measurements.
