Abs Exercise

If you are an athlete, lower ab exercises are essential to your workout regimen. The lower ab area is responsible for stabilizing the spine. If you have strong abdominal muscles, they can help you avoid back injuries. The ab muscles are composed of two main muscle groups: the transverse abdominis are the muscles that go across the abdomen and are responsible for pulling the belly button up towards the spine, and the rectus abdominis which is lined up vertically on either side of the abdomen and is responsible for lifting the pelvis towards the navel.
