One-leg v-sits

When you're comfortable with the v-sit, try the one-leg v-sit. Sit up straight on the trainer. Put your feet flat on the floor and your arms straight in front of you. Lift your right foot off the floor. Lean backward until you feel your abdominal muscles tighten. Hold for several seconds, then return to the starting position. Gradually work up to 10 repetitions. Repeat with your left leg.
