Rectus abdominis, your abdominal's originates on the sternum and ribcage and inserts onto your pubic bone. Its primary function is flexion of the trunk, and rotation at the waist using the oblique muscles.

Having strong abdominal muscles is necessary for all-round body strength, as any lifting with either arms or legs, will make use of the abdominal muscles.
 
These abdominal exercises will help you develop the six pack that you have always wanted.
