The rectus abdominals is the muscle that is in the front of the torso. It is separated by tendons, one down the middle and two or three(depending on genetics) across. This is what gives it the six pack look.

The transverse abdominals lies deep in the torso, it acts like a belt stabilizing the spine when we move.
