Sex-specific muscular adaptations in climbers: An ultrasonographic analysis of abdominal wall muscles. A novel cross-sectional study

This study aimed to evaluate and compare the thickness of the external oblique (EO), internal oblique (IO), transversus abdominis (TrAb), rectus abdominis (RA), and the inter-recti distance (IRD) between male and female climbers, using B-mode ultrasonography to identify potential sex-based morpholog...
