Stomach muscles, or abdominal muscles, are often referred to as a six-pack because of the way they appear. There are two muscles side-by-side at the top, two in the middle, and two on the bottom, which makes the stomach resemble an actual six-pack.

Are the stomach muscles the same as the muscles that mix the food and gastric juice?
No. The stomach muscles are what people call the abs or six pack and they are on the outside of the abdomen. The other muscles are part of the digestive tract itself. These muscles are smooth muscles and you don't have to think to make them move. But the others are called striated muscles. You have to think to make these move.

If you are 15 and you have six pack abs under a layer of skin but you used to be large as a child is this fat on your stomach if it is toned?
Your six pack can be covered by skin and/or fat. Many times, what sits on our stomach has a lot to do with our genes and our habits. Generally, we pick up fat-laying qualities from our parents and/or our relatives. When we work out, we can tone the muscles and use stored fat from anywhere in our bodies but this may or may not affect the fat on our stomach. Working our stomach muscles won't tone loose skin either -- this is heavily influenced by our genes. Hope this helps.
