Not all back-based mobility routines involve getting on the floor. In fact, one of the simplest ways to increase spinal mobility and relieve tension is through a standing routine — which is exactly what certified fitness instructor Caroline Jordan teaches in her 10-minute "Standing Back Mobility" workout.
As I discovered when trying this routine myself, gentle movements have the power to open and strengthen the back when practiced on a regular basis. With a standing mobility routine like this, you can support better posture, unlock tension, and build a more resilient spine — all while staying upright.
