Significant Findings:
β€’ Transgender women performed worse than cisgender women in tests measuring lower-body strength.
β€’ Transgender women performed worse than cisgender women in tests measuring lung function.
β€’ Transgender women had a higher percentage of fat mass, lower fat-free mass, and weaker handgrip strength compared to cisgender men.
β€’ Transgender women's bone density was found to be equivalent to that of cisgender women, which is linked to muscle strength.
β€’ There were no meaningful differences found between the two groups' hemoglobin profiles.
Hemoglobin (Hb) plays a crucial role in athletic performance by facilitating improved oxygen delivery to muscles. Elite endurance athletes may exhibit up to a 40% higher level of Hb compared to untrained individuals. Moreover, heightened levels of Hb typically correlate with enhanced aerobic performance.
