V-Up: how to do it
Lying flat, lift straight legs and arms at the same time to touch the toes, folding into a V, then lower back to flat.
NO EQUIPMENTStep by step

01 Arms overhead, legs straight, low back pressed down; lower slowly.
Avoid: the low back arching as you come down: it takes the strain.

02 Lift arms and legs together, legs straight, hands to the feet.
Avoid: bending the knees a lot: it becomes a tuck-up, half the work.
In short
- Start long: arms overhead, legs straight, lower back pressed down
- Lift arms and legs together, touch the toes
- Lower slowly back to long
