V-Up

coreBodyweight

V-Up is a bodyweight core movement. It primarily trains the Rectus Abdominis, with the Hip Flexors assisting. In Rebar it is logged as weight × reps, so every set contributes to your volume, your estimated 1RM and your Strength Score. It is also called v ups, jackknife, jack knife.
