Increased lordosis in the lumbar is one of the causes of poor posture and back pain. The purpose of this research is to investigate the effectiveness of extra-functional exercises with and without functional stimulation of the muscles around the lumbar joints in women with increased lumbar lordosis.

The conducted research is quasi-experimental and applied. The statistical population consisted of 46 women divided into two equal groups within the age group of 20 to 30 years in Tabriz city, each having a lordosis angle of 40 degrees. Evaluation of lordosis angles (control and experimental groups) was measured using a flexible ruler, tilt meter, and McGill test (pre-test). Then, for 6 weeks, the experimental group performed three sessions of exercise protocol and muscle functional stimulation per week, while the control group only received exercises similar to those of the experimental group (post-test). Statistical analysis was conducted using independent t-tests and paired t-tests at a significance level of 0.05.

In the experimental group compared to the control group, there was a significant difference in lumbar lordosis and anterior pelvic tilt components in the post-test (P<0.05).

Based on the obtained results, it can be acknowledged that central stability exercises (Extra Functional) along with muscle functional stimulation can yield beneficial results in improving lumbar biomechanics in cases of lordosis and hyperlordosis disorders within the statistical population.

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.

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.

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).

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.
