triangle pose

Angular standing stretch

Triangle pose is a standing yoga posture where the body forms angular shapes—legs wide apart, one arm reaching toward the floor while the other extends upward, torso tilting sideways.

Called trikonasana in Sanskrit, it stretches the hips, hamstrings, and spine while building leg strength: My triangle pose is getting deeper.
