Storied Fitness was founded on the principle that no fitness journey is the same; every story is individualized, and you deserve a plan as awesome as you. Founded in 2026 by Abby Welch, she started Storied Fitness after successfully completing her NASM-CPT credential. While she’s always had a passion for fitness, she decided to pursue a career in the health and wellness industry after two years as a Public Services Librarian with the Indianapolis Public Library. Working in public libraries, she struggled with burnout, weight gain, and self-esteem issues, but fitness was the one constant that kept her grounded. Now, she’s ready to help you tell your story.
Storied Fitness is a culmination and combination of all of Abby’s educational backgrounds – Media, Libraries, and Personal Training. At their core, all three emphasize the importance of stories worth telling. She holds a Bachelor of Arts in Media, a Masters Degree in Library Sciences, and now is a Certified Personal Trainer with the National Academy of Sports Medicine.
