Posture: The carriage of the body as a whole, the attitude of the body, or the position of the limbs (the arms and legs). Posture is how you hold your body. Dynamic posture is how you hold yourself when you are moving, like when you are walking, running, or bending over to pick up something. Static posture is how you hold yourself when you are not moving, like when you are sitting, standing, or sleeping.
