How to do Weighted V-Ups:

  1. Lie down on a flat surface or mat. Grab a 5lb or 10 lb weight with both hands. 
  2. Start with your legs straight, then come up.
  3. Touch your toes, and then let your torso fall back down
  4. Bring your legs up into the air, touching your toes again.
V-ups are a great ab exercise which will not only target your abs but also your quads and obliques since you target your upper and lower body, coming together. Adding weight into the mix intensifies this exercise to the next level. Incorporate this exercise into any ab routine to get the most out of your workout.
