standing position

On your feet

Standing position is the posture of being upright on one's feet, as opposed to sitting, lying, or kneeling.

The phrase appears in medical, military, and fitness contexts where precision matters: Return to standing position between repetitions.

Often redundant with simply "standing," but useful when contrasting with other positions or describing a starting point for movement.
