An Introduction to Abs

Simply put, the abs or the abdominal muscles are a group of six muscles which cover your ribs and parts of the stomach to the pelvis. Often referred to as the core, these six abdominal muscles are instrumental in providing much needed stability, proper movement and strength to the trunk. These muscles are an important muscle group in the body as they help in defining the form and in providing postrural stability to the body. Abdominal muscles also play an important role in providing support to the back and keeping the spine healthy. From the deepest to the superficial, these muscles are:

• transverse abdominal
• the internal obliques
• the external obliques
• rectus abdominis

It is the rectus abdominis which is the most superficial muscle and which if exercised to a high degree, gives the “six pack abs” effect to the core.
