Smash or Pass: Cheat Meals, Dating Your Twin, & Standing Reservations

Okayyyy tbh, I’m tired, and I wanted to record something easy. So tonight we're playing Smash or Pass. Some randomly generated topics (lol, thanks Claude), I say smash or pass, I riff if I feel like it, I move on if I don't.  We rotate through different categories like fitness, food, dating, & lifestyle.  xo, Jennifer*    *HBIC @ ABDAPG HQ Links mentioned: * Structure That Supports vs. Structure That Restricts with Deanna Gallicchio, RD [https://open.spotify.com/episode/02zRobFZzH79CXUOX7wrcW?si=IVpymDSySxa5z31XCjhdHA] Key Topics: smash or pass, training to failure, junk volume, cheat meals, flexible dieting, food relationship, disordered eating, diet culture, voice notes, therapy speak, mental health vocabulary, dating compatibility, energy matching in relationships, standing reservation, community rituals, adult friendships, weekend listen Got a question or topic suggestion?

Self-Worth vs. Self-Trust: The Difference & Why It Matters

Today I’m riffing on an old post of mine from a couple years ago, where I dissect a powerful question that changes how you show up to your health & fitness while also rippling across the other domains in your life. As it turns out, being able to answer this question for yourself consistently is the foundation of embodied confidence.

The Smoking Area: Unhinged Threads

Someone said that if Instagram is the social media equivalent of being inside the club, then Threads is the chill smoking area outside. And it definitely feels true, lol. Way less curated, way less polished.  With that, this is the start of a new weekend series: The Smoking Area.  Where I have no other agenda but to riff on hilarious / random / unhinged / thought-provoking Threads that have recently caught my attention. Not every weekend though. Just whenever I feel like it. Because I'm the HBIC @ ABDAPG :) xo Threads mentioned: * Thread 1 [https://www.threads.com/@lavraiebeatriz/post/DYUr__PFsiP?xmt=AQG0RZ1Chap0o20Vjy1BssbRR17De619lAk0LuMeLe8ZEd4XqyM0MWHxbxae3DV5-Tv3MjY&slof=1]: oven * Thread 2 [https://www.threads.com/@sndlstudio/post/DYVLdPvDVvr?xmt=AQG0JumHhWB6Og7dmupQNscR7JK3FTD6_b1nDNjUmZP1NuzMWp3KMnqc_jUnb2bdUx0_PpE&slof=1]: gay * Thread 3 [https://www.threads.com/@lisatrublet/post/DYVv5PMjnMA?xmt=AQG0QASk8-bYBkGr8PsCNLYBXRglsZzo7eWEEQGKi7WCbH4Av987OO-XD53So3wVuM7l59sX&slof=1]: ambition * Thread 4 [https://www.threads.com/@imtookind/post/DYVHujjEQAM?xmt=AQG0nX0gYtpTQmOrxs56EDKQvnS_o2v40We2A9CS511AU6UgpbYgTnMA23vvA4CQp3OodA4x&slof=1]: texting * Thread 5 [https://www.threads.com/@queenkayb_/post/DYVidocDSX3?xmt=AQG0m4HSsJKtR2zt_XQrX1sNuAbb-TXXmdcjWh5Dq9OZxGZV9YdIvdf2u1y3jU69Jqy_SBQ&slof=1]: voice Got a question or topic suggestion?

Fatigue Is Your Frenemy: WTF Is A Strategic Deload? (& Do You Need One?)

Look, I’m not gonna bullshit you: Some level of fatigue is an inevitable part of getting in better shape. So instead of trying to avoid it, I’d rather ask: How do we cultivate a healthy relationship with it? And how do we manage it so that the costs don’t outweigh the benefits? Today I walk you through a conceptual frame of what effective training actually is. And then I explain what a deload is, how to do it, and if it’s even necessary for you (hint: some people need it, some don’t). Movement is medicine. The magic is in the dosage.

Habit Change Is Actually Foreplay (feat. Two Questions That Get You Unstuck)

Here’s the reality that the “you just need more discipline” crowd consistently misses: Every behavior — good, bad, or pain-in-the-ass — exists because it’s trying to solve a problem.  Brute force & white knuckling your way through will only get you so far before something in your system says “fuck you”... especially if you never take the time to understand the architecture underneath.  If you find yourself struggling with a self-sabotaging habit, I share two counterintuitive questions with you that will unlock the beginning of deep change that actually sticks.  The slow burn is a feature, not a bug.
