In this episode we’re exploring Parkinson’s Law, the idea that “work expands to fill the time available," and how it might be quietly shaping your fitness habits. If you’ve ever felt like you “don’t have time” to work out or that your workouts need to be long to be effective, this one’s for you.

Abby breaks down how Parkinson’s Law applies to movement, motivation, and time management, showing you how less time doesn’t have to mean less progress. You’ll learn how to find the time to train, stay consistent, and make every minute of your workout count. From busy schedules to perfectionist tendencies, this episode offers mindset shifts that help you take action instead of waiting for the “perfect” time to start.

You’ll hear how shorter, focused workouts can deliver results, why planning too much can stall your progress, and how to stop letting time control your fitness routine. Plus, Abby shares simple, actionable ways to use Parkinson’s Law to your advantage, whether you’re squeezing in a 20-minute workout between meetings or trying to build momentum again after a break.

It’s time to stop thinking you need more time and start making the most of the time you already have.

In this episode of Talk Your Abs Off, I dive into the power of recovery and how massage, myofascial release, and stretching can help you feel and perform your best. Whether you’re lifting weights, running, or simply trying to move through daily life without feeling tight and sore, this conversation will help you understand what your body truly needs to recover well.

My guest Jason Freel, a licensed massage therapist, breaks down the real benefits of different types of massage and how they support strength training, flexibility, and muscle recovery. We talk about why massage isn’t just about relaxation, how often you should actually be getting bodywork, and what role stretching plays in keeping your body balanced. You’ll also learn how myofascial release works, why fascia matters for mobility and movement, and what to watch out for if you tend to overstretch or have hypermobility.

If you’ve ever wondered why your muscles still feel tight even when you’re stretching all the time, this episode will give you the clarity and tools to recover smarter. We share simple, practical tips you can use between sessions to maintain results, reduce soreness, and improve your range of motion. This is the perfect listen for anyone looking to build strength, prevent injury, and move better, without overcomplicating recovery.

At the end, we wrap up with easy ways to incorporate massage and mobility work into your daily routine so you can feel stronger, looser, and more connected to your body.

The holidays are right around the corner, and with them come travel, parties, family gatherings, and plenty of seasonal treats. It’s a fun time of year, but it can also bring a lot of stress when it comes to sticking to your fitness routine and healthy habits. If you’ve ever felt like your progress disappears every November and December, you’re not alone.

In this episode, I break down how to prepare for the holiday season without losing your momentum. I share simple, realistic ways to move your body when your schedule is packed, and how to enjoy holiday food without guilt or restriction. You’ll learn how to shift away from the all-or-nothing mindset and focus on progress over perfection. Because a few weeks of celebration shouldn’t undo months of hard work.

I also talk about setting intentions instead of rigid resolutions, staying grounded when routines change, and finding joy in the flexibility that this season brings. Whether you’re traveling, juggling events, or just trying to make it through the holidays feeling good in your body, this episode will help you find a rhythm that actually works.

By the end, you’ll walk away with a new perspective on holiday health. One that leaves room for both cookies and consistency. Because fitness during the holidays shouldn’t feel like punishment. It should feel empowering, sustainable, and full of grace.
