How many abdominal muscles do people have? How many abdominal muscles do people have? How many abdominal muscles do people have? Analyses related to the problem
The rectus abdomen starts from the ridge of the pubic bone and ends upwards in front of the xiphoid process and the 5-7-core cartilage. It is a whole muscle.
It is divided into several muscle abdomen by 3-4 tendons. People with 4 tendons have 8 pieces; people with 3 tendons have 6 pieces. This has something to do with genetics. But whether it is 8 or 6-pack abdomen, it has no effect on the function of the abdominal muscles.
ps: The tendon scratch mentioned above is actually a tendon, a hard connective tissue... which is what I usually call tendons. (The bovine tendon is beef tendon). It is not a "string" with "blue veins", but this "string" refers to veins.
pss :The tendon is a cord-shaped or membranous dense connective tissue at both ends of the muscle abdomen, which facilitates the attachment and fixation of the muscles. The tendon of a muscle is attached to two or more different bones. It is because the tendon pulls the muscles to cause the contraction of the muscles to drive the movement of different bones. Each skeletal muscle is divided into two parts: the muscle abdomen and the tendon. The muscle abdomen is made of muscle fibers, red and soft in color, and has the ability to contract. The tendon is composed of dense connective tissue, white and hard in color, and has no ability to contract.
pss: The tendons of the abdominal muscles are relatively special. Except for the two ends, the tendons in the middle are muscles..
How to say "abdominal muscles"...
The abdominal muscles still have superficial flat muscles on the anterior and lateral abdomen wall (from shallow to deep is External oblique muscles - internal oblique muscles - transverse abdomen muscles), "eight pack abdomen muscles" are of course the rectus abdomen muscles, but since some "abdominal muscle training" will practice the external oblique muscles - I think it is better to explain it clearly~, I have said an article before: What does 6 and 8 abdominal muscles depend on? You can learn about it.
The following sections are from "Field Anatomy"
External oblique muscles:
Story from the lower 8 pairs of ribs, intersecting with the serratus anterior and latissimus dorsi. The muscle bundle moves from the outer upper outer edge to the inner bottom, near the half-month line and below the anterior superior iliac spine plane, the aponeurosis.
Inner oblique muscles:
Located deep on the external oblique muscles, it originates from 2/3 or 1/2 on the thoracic lumbar fascia, iliac crest, and inguinal ligament. The posterior part of the muscle The muscle bundle rises at three pairs of ribs in the lower position; most muscle bundles move inward and above, and move in the aponeurosis at the half-month line, participating in the formation of the rectus abdomen sheath and ending at the white line; the anterior and lower muscle bundle starts from the inguinal ligament, transversely inward or lower, and its lower edge passes through the front and above of the sperm cord, gradually shifts in the inguinal sickle (also known as joint tendon), and gradually moves in the medial end of the pubic comb ligament and near the pubic tubercle.
Straight abdominal muscle:
Located deep on the internal oblique muscle of the abdominal wall, it is the deepest flat muscle of the abdominal wall. It starts from the inner surface of the 6 pairs of rib cartilage, thoracolum fascia, iliac crest and lateral lateral inguinal ligament. The muscle bundle runs inward and moves in the anponeurosis near the half-month line, participating in the formation of the rectus abdomen sheath and ending at the white line.

How to practice the eighth abdominal muscles?
See this picture? You can find something called tendon scratching. If you observe carefully, you will find that it is it. Once the white tendon scratching and the red muscles are divided, it will look one by one.
Yes, we are close to the answer.
In fact, tendon scratching is a very important reason for making the abdominal muscles look one by one, which determines how we practice the abdominal muscles. It will not only become as full as a stick like a biceps.
The next situation is a very tragic thing. This thing called tendon scratching is born and will not become more or less during your exercise.
In other words, many buddies may not be able to develop eight-pack abdominal muscles in their lifetime, and at most they can only make the abdominal muscles they trained become developed.
By the way, the abdominal muscles are actually a complete muscle. The abdominal muscles we usually talk about refer to the rectus abdominal muscles where the tendon scratches are, but the tendon scratches divide the rectus abdominal muscles into small segments, and it looks like there are many muscles.
