There are multiple reasons to opt for a standing ab workout.

If you have trouble getting up and down off the floor, you don’t have to.  Even if you can get up and down, these moves are convenient because you don’t have to pull out a mat and get on the floor.  If you’re prone to neck pain when doing traditional ab exercises, standing abs reduces the chances the neck gets aggravated.  Often, lots of other body parts are working with you while you do standing abs.  And, as most of the physical challenges we face in life occur when we are standing, standing abs are a real functional type of movement.
