How to do it

Lie flat on your back with arms extended overhead. Simultaneously lift your straight legs and upper body, reaching your hands toward your feet at the top to form a V shape, then lower with control.

Form Tips

Exhale as you rise. If this is too difficult, start with bent-knee V-ups. Keep the movement smooth rather than jerky.
