Assessment of abdominal and pelvic floor muscle function among continent and incontinent athletes

ConclusionsWe found that incontinent athletes have greater PFM strength than continent athletes. This suggests that urinary incontinence in this population is not due to PFM weakness. The positive association between abdominal and PFM strengths in incontinent athletes may be due to frequent co-contraction between these muscle groups.
