Abbey is a big pilates fan. "I'm definitely not a runner, but I love doing Reformer Pilates and aerobic classes. Whenever I finish a session I always have more energy and my body feels really toned," she told Health & Wellbeing. "There are always new exercises and fads that come and go, but I always end up going back to Pilates-based activities, because they give me everything my body needs."

Abbey uses her workouts as an excuse to spend time with friends. "As everyone's so busy, it can be hard to arrange a catch-up with my friends, so we often go to a Pilates class together and grab a healthy breakfast afterwards – it's the perfect way to motivate each other and we squeeze in a gossip whilst working out," she added. 

Even when Abbey isn't in the gym, she has a bunch of hobbies that keep her blasting calories. "I've always been a very active person and love to get up and be outside as much as possible," she revealed. "There's nothing better than riding my horse in the countryside – I can't wait to get back in the saddle this summer." 

"My fitness mantra is to do something you enjoy but don't push yourself too hard," Abbey said. "It's great to eat as healthily as possible and to give your body everything it needs but at the same time, try not to be too strict with yourself because you have to enjoy your life. If you want a piece of chocolate, don't beat yourself up about it. And if that glass of wine on a Friday night makes you happy, drink up – everything in moderation."

Abbey is all about the occasional cheat meal. "I have a real sweet tooth. I love cakes and biscuits with a cup of tea but I try to limit how often I have them," she said. "When I indulge I usually go for a pizza at the weekend. I don't have it every day but now and again I really fancy one and don't hold back. If I deny myself anything it can put me in a really bad mood and I think about it all the more."

"I can't start the day without making a green juice," Abbey dished. "I throw in any fruit, vegetables, nuts and super powders that I have in the fridge and I've noticed such a difference in my energy levels, my skin is really clear and my hair feels stronger. Without one I feel sluggish, tired and crave unhealthier foods, so I always make sure I've stocked up on healthy ingredients. I feel better knowing that I've had my vitamins and minerals for the day, so anything extra is a bonus."
