lower abs
Below the navel
Lower abs refers to the abdominal muscles in the region below the navel, though anatomically the rectus abdominis is a single muscle running the length of the torso.
In fitness contexts, people target their lower abs with specific exercises like leg raises or reverse crunches: I need to work on my lower abs.
The term reflects how the muscle looks and feels rather than actual anatomy.
