Liikesarjoissa

Liikesarjoissa is a term used in Finnish fitness language to describe a training approach in which a series of exercises is performed in sequence with short or minimal rest between movements. A single liikesarja refers to one continuous run of several exercises, and liikesarjoissa often denotes training organized into multiple such series or circuits within a workout. The concept emphasizes moving through different movements in a planned order rather than performing isolated sets of a single exercise.

In practice, liikesarjoissa are typically structured around stations or movements that target different muscle groups or fitness components. A common format includes 4 to 12 exercises, each performed for a set amount of time (for example 20 to 60 seconds) or a set number of repetitions, followed by brief transitions. Rounds or laps may be completed, with rest intervals adjusted to fitness level. Workouts can be equipment-based (dumbbells, machines, resistance bands) or bodyweight and may vary in intensity from moderate to high.

Variants of this approach include circuit training, supersets, and time-based intervals. The underlying principle is to maintain a relatively high heart rate while covering strength, endurance, and mobility elements. Liikesarjoissa are used for general conditioning, efficient workouts, and progressive overload by increasing duration, resistance, number of rounds, or reducing rest over time.

Considerations include proper warm-up, attention to exercise technique, and scaling for individual abilities or injuries. Planning should address balance across muscle groups, progression, and recovery to reduce the risk of overuse and to maximize training adaptations.
