Exercise of the week: V-sit Explosive
How does fitness evolve?
Learn how to perform a V-sit Explosive the EVO way. #EVOway #EVOfitness
WHAT
The V-sit is an explosive core exercise that challenges the abdominals and quads. It requires optimal hamstring flexibility to perform skillfully.
HOW
Lie on your back with arms overhead. Engage the core, and rapidly bring the hands to the feet, keeping the arms and legs straight. Return under control and repeat.
WHY
As well as being an excellent whole body core exercise, this movement is also a gymnastic-specific drill that lays the foundation for the high levels of control required in numerous jumps and rolls. As a fitness exercise, it works the abdominals through a larger range of motion compared to traditional exercises.
