Notes:

1. The most important point when practicing the external oblique muscles is For balance issues on both sides, for example, if you do the left side first, the next group should do the right side first. Because the first time you do it, you will have more energy and feel a little more relaxed. Therefore, in order to achieve balanced muscle growth of the external oblique muscles on both sides, the order of the left and right external oblique muscle movements should be adjusted for each set of exercises.

2. Practice 4 groups each time. When both sides have been practiced, it is a group without any rest in between. After practicing both sides, take a 1-2 minute break before starting the next set of exercises. 30-50 reps on each side, do the same for 4 sets. To give your muscles time to recover, practice every other day.

3. Note that the movements must be standard, otherwise the rectus abdominis will borrow force and affect the exercise effect of the external oblique muscles.
