Coaching cues
- From the kneeling start; roll diagonally to the right; return; roll diagonally to the left
- The two diagonals form a V pattern — alternate left and right each rep
- Obliques and lateral core are targeted more than a straight rollout
- Each rep counts as one V; complete 8 to 12 Vs per set
Common faults 2
Both diagonals are the same length — no true V
Each diagonal should reach the same distance; an asymmetric V means one side is weaker.
