One of the best routines done while standing up is the side bending. It strengthens the core muscles and it can be performed easily. A person only needs to hold a 2.5, a 5, or a 10 pound dumbbell on one hand. The other free hand has to be placed over the head while stiffly bending the elbow. Bending to the side of the body that holds the weight is the only thing needed done.
