/fit/ there are so many different opinions regarding training of lower abs.
Lets settle this once and for all: Can you specificly train and focus growth of the lower pack of your abs?
My upper 4pack is significant bigger and more dominant then the lower ones (they only show in very good lightning)... Bodyfat is already low (around 10%).
What do?
Hanging Leg or Knee raises + Lying Leg raises on a bench.
This will hit your upper and lower portion of the abs.
Don't believe me? try it yourself.

No. The abs are all one muscle, the segmentation is caused by tendon-like fibres over the top of the muscle rather than them being different parts.

You appear to have confused the hip flexors with the abs.

Then why does my upper abs burn when I do knee raises and then my lower abs burn when I do lying leg raises on a bench?
explain that one mr know it all haha xD
If you move your torso, it will target the upper. If you move your legs it will target the lower..

Most of that will be affected by the tendons that run across the rectus abdominalis that define the abs. However, to get the maximum definition you can out of your genetics, do some hanging leg raises holding a dumbell between your feet.

Because your psoas - which is a hip flexor - runs under your lower abdominal area to connect with the spine.

>Lower Abs
You also isolate the middle upper chest? How about lower lats?
Look at Arnold in his prime. Does he have visible lower abs?

Most men can't see their lower abs until they're well into single digits bodyfat.
Women should be able to see them well before 10%. If you're a woman, you're probably measuring your bf% inaccurately.
