For this reason, the internal obliques are referred to as "same-side ...
Muscles Worked: Transverse abdominis, rectus abdominis, internal and external obliques, triceps, scapular muscles and glutes. This move will also help improve hip mobility. This move will also ...
By exercising the internal and external obliques the stomach can be flattened. [12] The long arm crunch, in which arms are straightened behind, adds a longer lever to the move and emphasizes the upper part of the abs. The plank exercise not only strengthens the abs but also the back and stabilizes the muscles. [13]
Sit-up form. The sit-up is an abdominal endurance training exercise to strengthen, tighten and tone the abdominal muscles.It is similar to a curl-up (that target the rectus abdominis and also work the external and internal obliques), but sit-ups have a fuller range of motion and condition additional muscles.
The external oblique, closest to the surface, extend inferiorly and medially, in the direction of sliding one’s four fingers into pants pockets. Perpendicular to it is the intermediate internal oblique , extending superiorly and medially, the direction the thumbs usually go when the other fingers are in the pants pocket.
Muscles involved in the side plank include: Primary: transversus abdominis muscle, gluteus medius and gluteus minimus muscles (abductors), the adductor muscles of the hip, and the external and internal obliques. Secondary: gluteus maximus (glutes), quadriceps (quads), and hamstrings.

It is positioned immediately deep to the internal oblique muscle. The transverse abdominal arises as fleshy fibers, from the lateral third of the inguinal ligament , from the anterior three-fourths of the inner lip of the iliac crest , from the inner surfaces of the cartilages of the lower six ribs, interdigitating with the diaphragm , and from ...
