Description
Fallen Triangle (broken triangle, fallen star) Pose is a dynamic arm-support pose that merges a twisting plank with a partial side plank. The supporting arm’s shoulder and core (oblique) muscles engage strongly to keep the hips lifted off the ground. One leg threads through to the opposite side, extending out to stretch the hamstrings and outer hip of that extended leg. Meanwhile, the chest rotates open as the opposite arm reaches up, which stretches the intercostal muscles and chest on that side. This pose builds strength in the shoulders and side body while providing a stretch to the legs and a gentle twist through the torso.
