Who’s Tired of Being Tired? A Plan to Give You Your Fire Back
Fyonna Vanderwerf | JUL 28, 2025
Intro (Cue the mic drop):
Let’s get real for a minute.
If one more person tells you to “just get more sleep” or “maybe try a smoothie,” you might scream.
You’re tired — not just yawn-tired, but soul-deep, what-happened-to-my-mojo tired.
And guess what? You're not broken. You're burned out.
Hormones, stress, overgiving, underfueling, sitting too long, pushing through too much — it's not you, it’s the system you’ve been surviving in.
But here’s the deal: tired is a message, not a life sentence.
And it’s time to get your fire back.
You’re doing too much for everyone else and not enough for yourself.
Burnout doesn’t happen from laziness — it comes from care overload.
Your body’s energy systems are out of sync.
Blood sugar, hormones, adrenals, nervous system — if they’re fried, you will be too.
You haven’t lifted anything heavy (besides your responsibilities) in weeks.
Muscle is your energy engine. Build it, and everything changes.
You're missing recovery, not motivation.
You can’t pour from an empty cup — and yours has been cracked for months.
You’re chasing productivity instead of power.
To get it back, you don’t need hustle. You need alignment.
Theme: You don't owe your energy to everyone else. Today, you choose where it goes.

Power Meal:
Eggs + avocado smash on rye + greens.
Protein + healthy fat + fiber = sustained energy, not sugar crashes.
Fire Four Movement (x3/day):
Bodyweight Squats x 20
Inchworm Walkouts x 5
Wall Sit Hold x 30 seconds
Marching Glute Bridge x 15/leg
How It Works:
Legs, core, posture, circulation. Wakes your glutes and turns on your power base.
Quote:
"You’re not too tired to move. You’re tired because you haven’t moved." — Fyonna, probably after 1 coffee ☕️

Fire Four Movement (x3/day):
Step-Back Lunges x 10/leg

Bird Dog x 10/side
Wall Angels x 15 slow reps
How It Works:
Total-body mobility + strength + posture reset. Brain + body connected.
DAY 3: Fuel Like You Mean It
Quote:
"Your body isn’t a garbage can. Stop feeding it like one." — Fyonna & every tired woman ever
Power Meal:
Grilled chicken or tofu power bowl: quinoa, greens, roasted veg, lemon tahini.
Meal = fuel, not filler.
🏋️♀️ Fire Four Movement (x3/day):
Reverse Plank Hold x 30 sec
Dead Bug Core Taps x 15/side
Wall Push Press x 15
Hip Hinge to Wide Row (use light weights or cans) x 12
How It Works:
Strengthens core and upper back. You’ll feel taller, stronger, and grounded.

Apple slices + almond butter + cinnamon
Balanced, brain-boosting, and stress-calming.
Fire Four Movement (x3/day):
Standing Side Reach x 10/side
Torso Twists x 20
Heel Raises x 20

Power Meal:
Salmon or lentil wrap with greens, cucumber, avocado, and spicy mustard.
Omega-3s + fiber + mood-lifting fats.

Plank Climb x 10
Split Squat (rear foot elevated if possible) x 10/leg
Superman Hold + Reach x 30 sec

How It Works:
Strength + resilience. A little uncomfortable = a lot of badassery.
Your core will fire better (literally).
Your glutes will lift. Activate- help guide your body forward.
Your confidence will return.
And the fog will start to lift.
