Transverse abdominal muscles, the inner muscle that keeps your stomach and intestines in your body and provides your body with trunk stability.
As I've aged, I notice that this muscle through time and gravity has allowed my stomach to extend more than when I was younger, even when I have a full six pack in my abdominus rectus muscles, (those that help compress the chest toward the pelvis).
I've seen and tried the exercise where you get down on all fours, arch your back, and do repetitions of sucking your gut in as tight as possible toward your spine. But I see little if any progress from this exercise.
Are there any exercises you can do with weighted resistance to tighten up the Transverse Abdominals?
