Does running on a treadmill works the abs?

    Pretty much any form of exercise requires you to use core strength, but if you want a 6-pack your going to have to do more than run.

    A better way to work your core is to do free weights instead of machines. The extra work you do balancing the weights and keeping your form will work your core a lot harder than if you were using machines.
