That impressive you have achieved that look. It's not easy. @Toni – The V shape is the oblique muscle protruding above the rectus abdominus muscle, so there is a clear separation between the two muscles.

I'm wondering because I started doing v-ups awhile back and noticed those defined cuts by my torso where it meets my upper thigh. Anyway, these take loads of practice and to get the most benefit have to be performed slow and controlled as you so aptly mentioned. BTW, now I do them with a dumbbell like you suggested but I'm only up to 2 lbs. at this point in time. Marc,

I can feel my abs working, however, it is going to take some practice do these exercises without jerking my body. Definitely not easy. You really make this look easy.
