standing exercises
Vertical fitness movements
Standing exercises are physical movements performed while upright on your feet, as opposed to seated, lying, or kneeling positions.
They typically engage core muscles for balance and stability while working other muscle groups: Standing exercises are ideal for small spaces.
Common examples include squats, lunges, and standing stretches.
The term appears frequently in fitness routines designed for office workers, seniors, or anyone avoiding floor work.
