'''Ardha Matsyendrasana''' also known as the Half Lord of The Fish pose, Half Spinal Twist Pose, is derived from the Sanskrit terms ardha (half), matsya (fish), indra (King or Lord). Ardha Matsyendrasana is one of the best twisting postures. The entire spine gets rotated around its axis. Moreover, your spine also gets two side twists throughout its length. The levers used for these extreme twists are the arms and the knees.
