Yoga Poses Revolved Seated Forward Bend (Parivrtta Paschimottanasana)  Parivrtta means turned around or revolved; Paschima means the west and refers to the back of the entire body; Uttana means an intense stretch. That says it all! Tthis is an intense stretch for the hamstrings and lower back!
 Standing Oblique Sidebend This sidebend stretches the back differently than the usual sidebend, due to the oblique angle at which you move forward. It isolates a muscle called the Quadratus Lumborum, which connects from the hip bone (Ilium) to the 5 lumbar vertebrae and the bottom rib.
Standing Side Bend - Gentle This is a gentle way to prepare the body for more side bends and a great pose for those who are tight, older or have suffered an injury that has affected their range of motion.
