What four muscles help form the abdominal girdle?
External Oblique Internal Oblique Transversus Abdominis REctus Abdominis
What muscles compose the abdominal wall?
The four muscles that are involved in the compression of the abdominal wall are the internal oblique, external oblique, transversus abdominus, and the rectus abdominus.
What muscles are used in a hook punch?
External and internal obliques Pectoral major Deltoids
What muscle help form the natural abdominal girdle?
transversus abdominusThe internal and external obliques.
Where are the oblique abdominals?
The abdominal external oblique muscles are to either side of the frontal abdominal muscles called the rectus abdominis ("six pack"). The obliques are larger and more visible in men.
How does the fiber orientation of the external oblique compare to the internal oblique?
Imagine standing and crossing your arms (i.e. so that your right hand touches your left thigh and your left hand touches your right thigh). This would be considered the fiber direction of your External obliques which are the most superficial abdominal muscles. Deep to the external obliques are your internal oblique muscles. Your internal obliques run mostly perpendicular to your external obliques (i.e. opposite direction). The next layer of the abdominal muscles are the transverse abdominals whose fiber direction is parallel (horizontal) to the ground (when standing). Hope this helps.
Muscle that is being develped when you do sit ups is what muscle?

The rectus abdominis, the transverse abdominis, internal and external obliques
Is the internal oblique superficial to the transverse abdominis?
Yes, it is. It lies below the external oblique. The transverse lies below both obliques making the external superficial to the other two.
What is the action of the external obliques?
fiber direction
What kind of tissues help you move your eyes?
