Fitness Trainer Kaisa Keranen in Two-Piece Workout Gear Shares "Strength + Mobility" Workout

Here’s how Kaisa Keranen stays in great shape.

The personal trainer and fitness expert Kaisa Keranen is working to inspire others to care about their health and wellness as much as she does. "STRENGTH + MOBILITY⁣. No matter how short I am on time, you will NEVER find me slacking on my mobility work. I've seen FAR too many benefits to undervalue this form of movement.⁣ Incorporating mobility into my routine absolutely changed the game for me. Increased mobility of my joints has allowed me to experience huge gains in my strength and overall performance, not to mention, moving pain free! 🙌🙏⁣," she said on Instagram. "So what is mobility exactly? It's the ability to actively take our joints through their full ranges of motion. A joint is where two bones meet — such as your hips, knees, ankles, and shoulders.⁣ By incorporating regular mobility work into our workouts, we are "greasing" up our joints and taking them through active ranges of motion. This not only helps us move easier and feel better in our bodies, but it also helps to alleviate aches and reduce the risk of future injuries.⁣ Do you incorporate mobility into your routines?" Here's what she does to stay in such great shape.

1

She focuses on mobility training

She prioritizes mobility training. "What is mobility training & why should you be doing it…⁣Simply put, mobility is the ability to move a joint through its full range of motion.⁣ Regular mobility training helps to reduce any restrictions within the body by increasing your range of motion at each joint.⁣ The ability to move freely within your body not only helps you FEEL your best, it can also help to alleviate chronic pain, reduce injuries and improve overall performance.⁣ Mobility is a form of movement that EVERY body should be doing & will benefit from," she said on Instagram.

She takes time to cool down

She knows it's important to cool down after workouts. "4 min. COOL-DOWN 🙌⁣ How many of you actually spend time cooling down after your workouts? 😳 I bet not many…⁣ (and let's be honest, I don't always either even though I know better!) But here's the thing Team, cool-downs are super important for the body AND they don't have to be complicated. Try these four gentle moves after your next workout," she said on Instagram.

She aims to inspire others

She works hard on her own body and wants to inspire others to prioritize their health, as well. "The September Challenge has officially started and day one was 🔥🙌⁣ Details:⁣ Strength, cardio & mobility⁣, 5-days a week⁣, intermediate level⁣, [and] heavy & medium set of dumbbells⁣. Who's in," she asked on Instagram.

She works out with kettlebells

She uses kettlebells on occasion to get the most out of her workouts. "4 kettlebell moves to try! 🔥⁣You don't have to overthink things Team. Sometimes a workout is as simple as picking out a piece of equipment and a few exercises and getting to it.⁣ Of course I always start with a quick mobility warm-up but after that, we kept it quick & fun with this kettlebell circuit," she said on Instagram.

She makes time for self care

She prioritizes self care. "Self care should NOT be a luxury.⁣ I feel very strongly about everybody having access to wellness and the ability to care for themselves.⁣ I also feel very strongly about movement and its MASSIVE positive impact on our physical and mental health," she said on Instagram. According to Mental Health First Aid, "engaging in a self-care routine has been clinically proven to reduce or eliminate anxiety and depression, reduce stress, increase happiness, and more."
