Your abs take up a large area of your core. In fact a lot of people think your abs are your core. But... there's a whole other side to it. It's called your back! Here are the main muscles that make up your core.
- Rectus abdominis - This is the main muscle in your ab group. It runs down the centre of your stomach. These are the muscles that eventually turn into a six pack.
- Transverse abdominis - This is the deepest of your ab muscles. It needs to be worked to build a solid foundation for your six pack.
- Internal and external obliques - These are the muscles that wrap around your waist. They're really important for any sideways motion.
- Erector spinae - These are your main lower back muscles. Keep these strong if you want to avoid lower back pain.
