Slide 4 of 6

Single-Leg V-Up

  • Lie face up with your arms overhead and legs extended, resting on the floor.
  • Keep your abs engaged by pulling your belly button into your spin and pressing your lower back into the floor.
  • Lift your hands and feet a few inches off of the floor into a hollow position.
  • Reach your arms to your right leg. Lower your arms and legs toward the floor to return to that starting hollow position (don't lower back down to the ground completely).
  • Reach your arms to meet your left leg, then return to the starting position. This count as one rep.
  • Carey recommends doing 25 to 30 reps.
