Quick Answer
The transverse abdominis is a deep abdominal muscle that helps stabilize the trunk and support posture.
The Full Story
The transverse abdominis is the deepest of the abdominal muscles, wrapping horizontally around the abdomen like a corset. It helps stabilize the spine and pelvis, supports breathing and core control, and increases pressure inside the abdomen when needed. It is often trained in rehabilitation and fitness because of its role in trunk stability. Weakness or poor activation of this muscle can affect posture and back support.
