We will evaluate the inter-and intra-rater reliability of pelvic floor morphometry obtained from transperineal ultrasound images collected at rest and during standardized weight lifting tasks.
The aim is to evaluate the inter-rater and intra-rater reliability of pelvic floor morphometry at rest and during dynamic, externally loaded barbell resistance training tasks using 2-dimensional (2D) transperineal ultrasound (TPUS) imaging in individuals with female pelvic anatomy. Establishing measurement reliability under these conditions is a necessary methodological prerequisite for future research in which we plan to investigate pelvic floor behaviour during resistance training and its potential relationship to exercise-induced urinary incontinence.
After a standard bladder filling protocol, TPUS imaging will be performed by two trained assessors using 2D ultrasound. Images and cine loops will be acquired under four standardized conditions: supine; standing; three loaded barbell back squats at 40%, 60%, and 80% of the participant's one-repetition maximum (1RM); and three loaded barbell deadlifts at 40%, 60%, and 80% of 1RM. Images and cine loops will be processed offline to measure levator plate length, levator plate angle, bladder neck height and anorectal junction height. The inter and intra-rater reliability of image acquisition and analysis will be determined for each measure under each condition.
Participants will be recruited from the Ottawa, Ontario and Vancouver, BC regions through local gyms, university facilities, and social media platforms. The study population includes active females aged 18 years or older who engage regularly in resistance training activities such as back squats and deadlifts and are able to lift > 80% of their body weight and are willing to attend a single in-person session at the University of Ottawa's Motor Function Measurement Laboratory or designated locations in the greater Vancouver area of BC.

Exclusion Criteria:
Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.
You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Bladder Neck Height
Bladder neck height will be measured from 2D ultrasound images as the length of a line drawn perpendicularly from the long axis of the pubic symphysis to the bladder neck.
Time frame: Day 1
Levator Plate Length
The levator plate length will be measured from the ultrasound images as the linear distance between the posterior margin of the pubic sympysis and the anterior margin of the anorectal junction.
Time frame: Day 1
Ano-rectal Junction Height
Ano-rectal junction height will be measured from the ultrasound images as the length of a line drawn perpendicularly from the long axis of the pubic symphysis to the anterior margin of the anorectal junction.
Time frame: Day 1
Levator Plate Angle
Levator plate angle will be assessed using ultrasound imaging.The images will be recorded under the standardized conditions.
Time frame: Day 1
Bladder Neck Funnelling
Bladder neck funnelling will be assessed dichotomously as present or absent based on the visualization of an opening of the proximal urethra.
Time frame: single visit
International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire-Urinary Incontinence Short Form (ICIQ-UI SF)
The International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire-Urinary Incontinence Short Form (ICIQ-UI SF) is a questionnaire that includes three questions about urinary incontinence frequency, severity, and impact on daily life, resulting in a score of 0-21. The fourth question aims to classify the type of urinary incontinence. The questionnaire has been established as valid, reliable, and responsive. Participants will be asked to complete this questionnaire for descriptive purposes.
Time frame: At enrolment
Australian Pelvic Floor Questionnaire (APFQ)
The APFQ consists of 42 questions in 4 domains (bladder, bowel, and sexual function and pelvic organ prolapse); the total score for both bladder and bowel function domains combined ranges from 0 to 20. Participants will be asked to complete this questionnaire for descriptive purposes.
Time frame: At enrolment
Five-part questionnaire on hypermobility (5PQ)
The 5PQ is comprised of 5 questions and was designed as a screening tool for hypermobility. It has been validated and is frequently used in clinical and research settings. Participants will be asked to complete this questionnaire for descriptive purposes.
Time frame: At enrolment
Beighton Score
The Beighton score is a 9-point physical screening test used to measure generalized joint hypermobility (joints that move beyond the normal range). It evaluates the pinkies, thumbs, elbows, knees, and spine. Participants will be asked to complete this screening test for descriptive purposes.
Time frame: At enrolment
Plan to share: Yes — Spreadsheets will be provided by email upon request and based on the planned use of the data.
Supporting information: Study protocol, Statistical analysis plan, Informed consent form
Time frame: Data will be available for 10 years after the publication of the study results.
Access criteria: Planned use of data for systematic review or meta-analysis.
Started May 2026 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Nov 2026, 6 months after the start.
