    Your abs make up your core. Strong abs make you less prone to injury, less like to suffer a hernia, prevent low back pain, and are a big group of muscles that will help burn calories :) Work um!

    Yip! I had massive back problems until I got a strong core, now when I ping my back (rare) it isn't half as bad and it comes right fast.

    Eating right and getting a lot of aerobic exercise may give you a relatively small stomach, but if you want a flat, toned abdomen, core exercises need to be part of your routine. There are several ab-targeting exercises possible with dumbbells that give your abs a harder workout than exercising without weights.

    "Working abs" (e.g. various forms of crunches and other focused "ab work")

    "working your core"

    NOT the same thing.

    Ab exercises are important. While cardio may help shed pounds, ab workouts can help tighten things up!
