Good morning, friends!
So, this workout was a fun one! It was fast and furious and over before I knew it. Love that.
As for the name, I joked to Mal that all of the granola I’ve eaten lately βfueledβΒ me through it. Haha!
For this workout, you need a barbellΒ (I used 65 pounds), a kettlebell (I used 45 pounds), somewhere to run, and a timer.
The movements:
FYI: My headband is from JUNK, and my shirtΒ (burnout material = love), shorts, and sneakers are from Reebok.
This workout was definitely one of those βquick and painfulβΒ ones! Haha! I took me about 15 minutes to finish, and I was exhausted (and insanely sweaty) by the end!

Super random question… I noticed your stone path. Does Murphy ever go after the rocks? To eat or play? I have 2 dogs and we have some space on the side of the yard where grass refuses to grow.
No, he never does. He’s an oblivious dog.
@Tricia: Just wanted to chime in that my parents have rocks in the their backyard (CA – hello drought!) and that their 2 Labs never bother with them. I totally thought our German Shepherd would as a pup too when he visited, but nope!
This has nothing to do with your awesome workout, but I love your headband! Totally heading over JUNK to check them out now π
Woohoo! Props to you for getting it done where and when you can!
Tina, you look like such a rock star! Such an inspiration!!
Quick & dirty workouts are the best!
Great workout idea! Thanks!
Great job! Have the neighbors ever walked by and done a double take or are you out of sight where you work out? π
@Anele @ Success Along the Weigh: I was going to ask the same question! Do the neighbors ever comment on your driveway workouts?
They’ve never said anything. I’m not sure anyone in our neighborhood has even noticed! Haha!
You look so great! I’m so impressed with your dedication to your workouts despite having a newborn at home.
The 3 movements in this workout are my favorites!
Good for you mama! I LOVED outdoor workouts when I was off with my son. Some days it was the only way for me to move my body. I would go in the backyard and workout while he napped. I would do skipping, burpees, planks, lunges, squats, sit ups, push-ups….anything I could to get a decent workout in!
Random question that I’m sure you’ll be posting about – are you tracking calories at all since you’re working out and breastfeeding? Just curious because I didn’t while I was nursing. I just ate when I was hungry and lost the weight quickly and never had a milk supply issue. My tummy region did not go back to the way it was pre-pregnancy, but I now know that’s b/c I had diastasis (separated abs) and was doing all the wrong things (planks, push ups, crunches etc) that probably made it worse.
I just eat when I’m hungry, which is ALL the time!
Quick and painful but over soon, love that! And I’m jealous that you can work out in your driveway – so cool!
Love it! I could manage 45lb for all three weighted I reckon! Totally pinning!
Awesome workout. I did something like this the other day. I love how it incorporates several muscle groups. π
This looks like a great workout! Quick but too the point π
Tina – question for you. I’m tossing around the idea of getting the things I would need for a home gym (barbell, bumper plates, squat/power rack, etc)…i.e. all the things I usually use in the Box. My question is, do you feel like your workouts are the same at home as they are in the Box, performance wise? I feel like I push myself hard in the Box because of the people around, but not sure how not having people around would change a workout… I know you workout at home with Mal so it might not be the same, but wondering what your thoughts are…before I dish out $1,800 for a home gym π
My workouts are a lot more fun at CrossFit! And, of course, I push myself harder when I’m working out with other people, but I’m definitely not slacking off when I exercise at home. How do you typically work out when you’re alone? Are you able to push yourself?
@Tina: To an extent I push myself, but I don’t think I do as much as when I’ve got people watching me π I love the idea of the ability to work out at home and work on strength…maybe if I remember how much I spent on the gym, it will push me to go hard! Hah
I’m thinking fast and intense workouts are the way to go with a newborn!
Wow what a tough workout! I’m loving the headband too. I’m still thinking about trying crossfit but concerned they may not give me modifications I need with it being a group fitness class.
I think that it is safe to say that right now my workouts are fueled by granola. Or at least they were until last night, when i finished off the last of the cranberry macaroon Nature box goodness. LE SIGH. I think that after this marathon (2 months to go!) I am going to push myself to get back to adding intensity and drive to my workouts. I am just too comfortable right now (except for long runs and tired days, that is different :D)
Saw this video today and totally thought of you and Murphy.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aca5GWhHeyM&list=UU_zEzzq54Rm0iy7lmmZbCIg
Haha! Very cute!! Thanks for sharing the link!
I love push presses! Looks like a fun/sweaty workout π
You are amazing!
You look great! Goes to show the benefits of working out during pregnancy!
Looks like a great workout! I just finished up my fundamentals course at my local Box and can’t wait to get started on the ‘real’ workouts! The thought of using 65 lbs. sounds like a TON of weight to me, but I suppose I need to start some where. π
Nice work!
Oh girl, this looks rough!
I ordered a JUNK headband and it should be here on Friday. I can’t wait! I’m really hoping that it will help keep the sweat out of my eyes during our WODs. It’s so hot down here in Florida!
xo,
Danielle
Love it Tina! Thank you for sharing! I’m always looking for another great workout π I’ll give it a try for sure!
Grogeous fit mama!
