The V-up is an ab exercise that works the entire rectus abdominis which is what most people refer to as the “6 pack”. It basically involves folding your legs and upper body into a V shape in order to engage all your ab muscles.
Description
How to do V-ups: - Lay flat on the floor with your legs flat and your arms extended over your head. - Lift your chest and legs up off the ground in unison. - Your chest should be led by your arms. - Your goal should be to touch your toes at the top of each repetition. - As you’re touching your toes, the top of your butt/tail bone should be the only thing in contact with the ground. - Don’t make the mistake of raising your leg, but not your upper body.That will do little for your abs. - To make it easier, simply reach for your shins or knees instead of your toes. - You can also bend your knees to make it easier. - To make it more difficult hold onto a weight, like a medicine ball, but go through the same exact motion.
