Fit Yummy Mummy workouts out with The Abs Expert: Scott Colby!
Scott Colby is in town for a business meeting so we decide to get together, catch up, brainstorm ideas and film a handful of fun workout videos to share with everyone.
This is a workout Scott likes to take his Fat Loss Boot Campers through that combines resistance training AND Cardio into one, fast paced, heart pumping, fat burning workout!
Scott suggests 20 repetitions for each resistance training move and 12 repetitions for each cardio based move. All you need is a pair of dumbbells and your own body weight for the cardio moves. It’s a challenge but your goal is to complete 3 full rounds!
1. Lizard Crawl Push Up
2. Squat Thrusts (I call them burpees) with a Jumping Lunge
3. Overhead Press
4. Mountain Jumper add a Y
5. Renegade Row
6. Tuck Jumps
(Do not attempt the jumping moves if you have bad knees and as always, consult with your Dr before beginning a new workout or exercise routine.)
Heck – I was feeling it by just going through one demonstration round! Just wanted to share something fun to throw into your Fat Loss Workout Mix!

NICE! What a great set of exercises! And I don’t know why, but it is good to see you get something out of doing the workout Holly . Let’s me know it’s good stuff .
Wow! That workout looks killer! It’s amazing how effective a workout can be without doing long amounts of cardio and needing a ton of equipment. Thanks for sharing Holly!
This looks like a very tough but awesome workout. What’s the best strategy to work up to the desired number of reps/sets? Is it best to do as many reps as you can, then switch to the next exercise, while potentially not being able to do 3 sets ? Or is it best to try to target 3 total sets and do less reps/exercise in order to be able to complete the whole circuit.
Wow Holly and Scott! What an amazing set of exercises – I’d never heard of or seen Lizard Crawl Pushups before! And Holly you made all of the exercises look so easy!! I’m sure if YOU were out of breath, I would probably DIE. I think I’ll wait until I’ve reached the end of my 16 week program so I can maybe start to do some of these. Thanks heaps – something to work towards.
Can’t wait to add these into my workouts Holly….a few more weeks and I’ll hopefully be able to get back to a regular routine!!
Great workout Holly & Scott!!
Love the video. At he bottom of article it says: to see the complete, unedited workout video log in to ClubFYM. I did this but cannot find the video. What am I doing wrong. Again thank you for all your dedication as well as wonderful information.
Hi Ladies. Glad you like the workout. I had to find something that would challenge Holly.
Another modification, Peggy, for the squat thrusts (and this is assuming the painful part is the deep squat all the way down when your hands are on the ground), instead of putting your hands on the ground, put your hands on a step (if you have access as one). This will make it such that you don’t have to bend your knees as much.
The higher the step, the less you will have to bend your knees, and since the movement is pretty challenging anyway, this is also a good modification of the movement for beginners.
hello Holly and Scott,
thanks for this, it is pretty challenging. 2 questions though:
1) what is the break between the excercises (if any), and what is the break between the sets?
2) FYM book recommends to alternate 2 workouts for a period of 3-4 weeks. If this is one workout, what would the other one be? or can this workout be done alone for 3-4 weeks?
thanks in advance for your reply

Hey great workout I could only go about one round tho. I have a question what if we can’t complete all 20 lizard crawl push-ups I could only do 10 can this work ot be modified to someone who hasn’t devolped a great amout of upper bod strenght yet.
Please understand this is a challenging workout – and yes it is fine to modify.
Just goes to show the importance of following a full body, progressively challenging resistance training workout plan TO develop strength – which leads to even better results

That looks super challenging. It’s definitely gonna be in my workout rotation! So many great workouts to try! Thanks Holly!
Love it!! I love seeing new cardio moves that I could add to my intervals to challenge myself!!
I think you’re so cute Holly! LOL..Man those workouts were killer and you make it look so easy!! Hopefully I’ll get to that point one day!!
Thank you, Holly and Scott. Great workout. I’d like to give a try once I finish the December workout!
Thanks Holly and Scott- that was cool. That jumping move looked super hard! Oh-man!

The squat thrusts kill my knees. What alternate exercise would you suggest?
You can either choose a body weight form of cardio you can do Peggy or eliminate the jumps from the squat thrusts.

You would progress just as I have guided you to progress with your FYM workouts Elise ; )

Hey Daniella,
The break between exercises is “little to no”
The break between sets is 1-2 minutes depending on your fitness level.
If you have Fit Yummy Mummy then you have plenty of workouts to rotate between.
I would not suggest doing just one workout for 3 weeks. If you have FYM you know this.

Haphazardly following a new workout each day or week as I covered in the post:
