How to do Medicine Ball V-Up

Setup

Lie on your back with arms extended overhead holding a medicine ball in both hands, legs straight and core pulled in.

How to do it

  1. Raise your torso and legs simultaneously, bringing the ball toward your toes
  2. Balance briefly on your sit bones at the top in a V shape
  3. Lower with control until your shoulders and legs hover just above the floor
  4. Exhale as you come up, inhale as you lower

Watch out for

  • Bending the knees so much that the movement becomes a crunch instead of a V-up
  • Yanking with the arms or pulling on the neck instead of lifting through the abs
