ABOUT SYNERGY
ABOUT SYNERGY
Welcome to Synergy Coaching!
What began in 2023 as Coach Abs quickly grew into a thriving community of individuals striving to reach their fitness and lifestyle goals. Over the course of our first year, the vision for our coaching business became more focused and refined. By the end of that year, it became clear that our original branding no longer fully represented our evolving values and aspirations. That’s when we decided to level up, introducing a fresh, professional look that better reflects who we are and what we stand for.
Why Synergy?
The word "synergy" refers to the concept that the combined effort of a group is greater than the sum of its parts. At Synergy Coaching, we firmly believe in the power of collaboration — that we can achieve so much more when we work together. Your journey is never yours to face alone; we’re here to guide, support, and celebrate every step you take toward your goals.
Our coaching philosophy is built on this principle of partnership and shared growth. Abbey isn’t just your coach; she’s your teammates, cheerleader, and accountability partner.
MEET THE COACH
Hey! I’m Abbey, the coach behind Synergy Coaching. Here’s a little insight into my journey and what brought me here:
I grew up immersed in the world of ballet and jazz dance. While I loved it at the time, by the age of 16, I realized it no longer aligned with my passions and aspirations. That’s when I discovered the gym and began my fitness journey. Over the past decade, training has become an integral part of my life. In the early years, I worked out purely for enjoyment, with little knowledge of structured training. It wasn’t perfect, but it ignited a lifelong love for movement and strength.
Like many others, my journey wasn’t without its struggles. In my late teens and early twenties, I was fixated on my appearance, constantly comparing myself to others and striving to be as small as possible. My relationship with food was unhealthy—I viewed it as the enemy and restricted myself to extremes. Looking back, I realise how much time and energy I spent worrying about my body instead of truly living and appreciating life.
Everything began to shift about four years ago when I discovered the power of strength training. Building muscle and focusing on what my body could do transformed my mindset. As I grew stronger, my relationship with food started to heal. I began to see food as fuel, enabling me to achieve things I never thought possible.
In 2022, I pushed myself to new limits by signing up for a half Ironman. Completing my first half in December of that year was a turning point—it inspired me to embrace a hybrid training approach, blending strength training with endurance challenges. Since then, I’ve run half marathons, marathons, and continued pursuing my love for Ironman events. Now, I’m setting my sights on even bigger goals, like completing a full Ironman!
Through my experiences, I’ve learned so much about the importance of balance, resilience, and self-compassion. My mission as a coach is to share those lessons, helping others build healthier relationships with food, exercise, and themselves. Whether you’re looking to adopt a more balanced lifestyle, tackle a fitness goal, or achieve something you never thought possible, I’m here to support you every step of the way.
One of my greatest joys is helping clients chase their “crazy” goals—those dreams that feel out of reach. Whether it’s running a first marathon or completing a daunting endurance event, I love showing people that they’re capable of far more than they realize. Together, we’ll turn the impossible into achievable, one step at a time.
