Revolved Triangle
- Pro
- Intermediate
- Yoga
Revolved triangle is a standing yoga pose built from a forward fold with the hips kept square to the front. It stretches the hamstrings and works the obliques through a spinal twist, with the top arm reaching skyward. Intermediate practitioners use it in yoga, held for time as a warmup, cooldown or recovery flow.
