Differences in Anatomical Structures and Resting-State Brain Networks Between Elite Wrestlers and Handball Athletes
The increased GMV, cortical thickness, and functional connectivity observed in wrestlers highlight the presence of sport-specific neural adaptations. While this research provides valuable insights into the neuroplastic effects of various athletic disciplines, further studies involving additional sports and control groups are needed for a more comprehensive understanding.
