Muscles of the Anterior Abdominal Wall - 3D Anatomy Tutorial 

I’m not even in anatomy or the medical field I’m just an artist who finally found a a good tutorial for drawing abs.

You teach anatomy better than medical school faculty.

thank you, I'm really glad that this has helped to clear up your understanding. Sometimes I wonder if I'm either stating the obvious, or not conveying the concept, so thanks for taking the time to comment. More tutorials on the way ! :)

"..and this can help force things out of the body like urine, feces, and... babies"

Best compliment I have received on my videos - thank you for watching! :)

Hands in pockEts. Hands on tIts. I'll never confuse the direction of the muscles again :D Thank you

yes I agree with you about that - I am thinking of starting a clinical anatomy series, which follows on from the basic anatomy videos and covers the common clinical problems relating to the anatomy. Just wanted to keep the videos basic as it applies to a wider audience, and it keeps the length down to separate basic and clinical anatomy videos, but definitely stay tuned for some more clinically oriented anatomy videos!

Urine, faeces and babies. That'll be the name of my band's first album

Bwa ha ha ha! Love the mnemonic for the fibers of the internal/external obliques!!

the thumbnail is my body shape

This video was posted when I was in my eighth grade And here I'm watching this video as a medical student 🥺 Keep it up Sir🙌

urine,feces and babies lol that cracked me up almost sounded like babies are just waste products hahaha!

glad I could help!

Now I know all the muscles missing from my six pack

thank you!

thank you! Thank you! thank you! I just wanted you to know, i passed my first year thanks to you! and in second year i know i won't have to waste time searching , i'll just have you! thank you thank you! and hope we'll have a nice , happy successful year together (you doing videos, me watching and understanding) too ^^

You're saving my life/grades here at the moment, mate. Good on you xD

Hands on tits! HAHAHA! You said it so seriously I lost it! HAHAHA! Thanks!

Thank you so much! Have watched far too many videos trying to find information on the transversus abdominis and none of them were of any use. Your video is the exact correct balance between technical and common language and brilliantly informative.

8:46- Confirm: IHA states that external ab contraction causes the trunk turn to the opposite side.

Urine, feces, babies stuff was so proffessional and yet so funny. But the "tits" mnemonics was so vague and impracticle. At least it was kind of funny because of the surprising jargon.

Instead of saying superior 3 quarters and inferior 1 quarter of the rectus abdominus, you can use the Anterior Superior Iliac Spine (ASIS) as a reference point for explaining that there is a rectus sheath anteriorly and posteriorly above ASIS and only anteriorly below ASIS

I used your tutorials when studying for Pilates exam. Thanks. Very helpful. You mentioned action of the obliques during flexion and lateral flexion. I would love to see rotation: comparing opposite sides and internal vs external during rotation.

This video was uploaded when I was in my 3 rd grade and I am seeing it now in my med school. Your teaching is better than our professor's

I'm 32 and I can't keep from laughing every time he says rectus

mnemonics - Hands in pockEt, hands in tIts 💀

Everything visualized...😀..thanq

great video! thank you for all the time and hard work you put into making your channel. i'm finding it all really helpful.

Video was posted when i was in 2nd grade now im watching it for my first anatomy exam in medical school, crazy how life works out

I couldn't stop myself from laughing at the part where you said "and....babies". Was it intended? LOL. Nonetheless, thanks a lot for this tutorial. I do hope that I pass my test on Anatomy tomorrow. *fingers crossed*

NOTICE: contraction of the abs, increasing interior abdominal pressure, can also push out intestines by way of hernia. I just had Desarda mesh-free hernia repair, bilateral inguinal - one direct and one indirect - with ab floor rebuild. No foreign body will remain inside me after the sutures dissolve. I'll wait a long time before resuming weight lifting.

jesus this is really well done! I've never really understood how the lateral muscles join with the rectus abdominis til this. Thank you sir! ur tutorial collection is a must see for everyone wants to learn anatomy.

Hi Peter. Have been following your work for a few years now. Great stuff. Can you please post a video demonstrating how the right external oblique and the left internal oblique lead to rotation of the trunk to the right.

wow ! I was lost until watching your video ! thanks a lot !! I hope you keep up this amazing work so that help people :D

I never understood anatomy this well! Thank you

Why there is no deep fascia on abdominal wall but we call superficial fascia divisible into two parts like scarpas and fatty layer of fascia. instead ?

The receptionist convert everything Divine interest in such a conversation in Portsmouth Ford focus and hopefully for some refrain and a focus for a turkey to be a wireless intercom system part b benefits of competition for 2484 before I restain pissed yes You want everything else going on

I mean fuck my medical school that doesn't have such doctor to teach us carefully and greatly way 🤦‍♂️😐❤❤❤

I liked the real picture of the ab comparison

you are literally amazing! Thank you so much for this!!!!

Can anyone else see the face in the middle of the external obliques? 8 minutes or so into the video? There’s also another, alien, looking face below it! Maybe I need to stay off the mushroom coffee 🍄?

Ant and wall has 5 mz, innervated by ant rami of spinal nerves T7 - L1

Does anyone know if this website is still active? It doesn't appear to be.

trumps wallllllll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Good info man. Very straight forward and educated

Uploaded 8 years ago..am here in 2021❤️

externus and internus, how about opposite rotation? c'mon!?

I burst laughing in the library the moment you said hands on tits 😂

Hey, I find these videos extremely helpful. One thing though, I think it might be a mistake? The external and internal oblique muscles have their origins on two opposite sides, the more of the upper, costal cartilages for the external whereas the internal oblique originate on the iliac crest with their fibers pointing in quite the opposite direction. Doesn't this mean that they can't both have the same function of flexing the spine? wouldn't one be flexion of the spine and the other flexion of the hip towards the spine? which is which? Would appreciate a little bit of clarification for this, thanks!

The video is still helpful for an overview but it's sometimes slightly incorrect like saying the muscles are all innervated by Th 7 to L1 though Musculus obliquus externus abdominis and Musculus transversus abdominis are actually innervated by Th 5 to Th 12, so above the said Th 7. Also with the Musculus rectus abdominis insertion and origin are actually exactly the other way round

Just great explanation! Thank you so much :)

Amazing how God designed the human body! He definitely knew what he was doing!

I could not imagine in my life that I would be a student of medical sciences and would find the great teacher by great communicative source of USA electronic media. I appreciate and praise from the deep of my heart that may almighty Allah increase and develop the knowledge of Americans so we be able to get knowledge from the great teachers and provide health services to the humanity easily after watching these great collections.....thank you RU-vid and all teachers and organizers who did this great act of kindness. In the last of my comment I thank of this teacher really has used easiest way and really he has given very approachable methodology. I salute your way of teaching.

Thanks for this lecture U have just saved my tomorrow because I couldn't understand thos topic while reading but with this I have..but one problem What of the Posterior muscles of the abdomen

Aiiii!! Thank you thank you so much! Don't know what else i can say,God bless you!! Left lecture so clueless last time,but everything just fell into place :D thanks again :)

Am I the only non-medical student here? I'm crazy curious about this stuff. It's fascinating.

thankyouuuuuuu. Especially during the online studies, your videos are so helpful!!!!!!!1

These mnemonics 😂 thank you for the lesson!

your formula for maintaining figure is very good.

You forgot most important function, pushing, pulling, lifting etc thats daily body functions and oh, belly dancing

So from what I understand the abdominal, lower back and pelvis muscles are all connected to each other but are separated from the chest muscles?

Ohmygod!!!! You’re a lifesaver!!! You just cleared so many of my doubts!!

best video thank you sir

What type of tissue is sheath made of? Is it possible that the sheath get thicker or stronger over time and with certain training? Can it cover or inhibit the definition of the rectus abdominus muscles?

is is a very good presentation. well done. very benefiting to me

thanks for providing the video, I wonder why there is no mention of the rotation capabilities of the obliques

Good video,amazing Shoulder joint and Proximal Humerus Anatomy , Anatomy of the Arm and Forearm , Parotid Gland Surgery ,Chest Tube Insertion , Endotracheal Intubation Procedure

I can learn anatomy better with your videos than with my croatian proffesors!

Thanks for helping sir … May God bless you abundantly

such a nice explanation. tha kyou so much

Explaind in simple language thans 💯❤

It's so useful to study abdominal muscles. Thank you so much! But I have a question, 'Origin' and 'Insertion' you said in the video means the muscle's direction? I mean that the muscle contracts from 'origin' into 'insertion' is right?

I respect you.

your are genious!!! I remember EVERYTHING

loved the explanation specially the mnemonic ... hehe .. overall really helpful!

Superb. Hats off for ur licid crystal clear presentation.

omg that moment when he showed the guido xD

This is very useful! I'll go and throw my gray's anatomy book into the trash right now!

These videos are amazing! Thank you ! I would be happy to pay for them !

I lost it at urine,feces and babies. A really good video though

do the side muscles attach to the hip bones?

Your teaching style mashallah.

It's simple and better explaimed

+10 for pneumonics😂👌

Sir,Please make a video on Hernia..

How would you diagnose a weakness in the rectus abdominus? I am pregnant and doctor thought they had "collapsed" early on after a painful sneeze (lying flat on back) after which abdomen appeared potbellied, conjuring up horrific images of potential for protruding guts and abdominal surgery! Any weakness feels as though it's around belly button.

Plz be loud nd active enough 😇

Very nice video , so helpful thanks a lot for making this ❤️❤️

Thank you so much about this amazing video👏👏👏

Well done! This video was perfect, very well executed :-)

Thank you for making this and all the videos.

Ok but urine faeces and babies😭
