    Overweight and obesity are changes in nutritional status and are considered a public health problem due to the high prevalence rates worldwide and their implications in child and adolescent populations. These conditions are related to alterations in lung function, due to significant changes in the dynamics and functionality of the ventilatory system, which causes the accumulation of fat in the thoraco-abdominal region. The evidence is extensive regarding the influence of nutritional status reflected in anthropometric measurements and lung function; Therefore, it was proposed to design a guide for abdominal muscle strengthening exercises to improve lung function in young adults who perform physical activity at the Bushido Dojo in the city of Riobamba; through anthropometric measurements; through a descriptive study; where from a review and screening of the scientific literature, an exercise guide was structured, which was validated by experts and the agreement determined through a CVCi and CVCt of the document; this was socialized to those interested. The results obtained were 11 eligible scientific articles; CVCi equal to and greater than 0.80 in most items and a CVCt of 0.92 that indicates an excellent correlation between experts; the anthropometric measurements of the population were within the normal parameters suggested by international organizations; Except for the maximum values of the BMI of both men and women that indicate overweight, and finally in the socialization, the majority of interested parties qualified the process as partially and totally satisfied. Therefore, it is concluded that the guide to abdominal strengthening exercises to improve lung function is valid and applicable in young populations that perform physical activity.
