Muscle: Transversus Abdominis

The transversus abdominis, often called the TVA, is a key muscle located deep in your abdomen. You can find it underneath your other abdominal muscles, wrapping around your torso like a natural corset. This muscle plays a crucial role in stabilizing your core, which is essential for maintaining good posture and balance in your daily activities.Every time you bend, twist, or lift something, the transversus abdominis kicks in to support your spine and pelvis. It helps with movements like getting up from a chair, picking up groceries, or even just standing tall. Not only does a strong TVA improve your everyday movements, but it also reduces the risk of back pain and injuries, making it vital for overall fitness and well-being.Ready to strengthen your transversus abdominis?
