In Their Own Words
"I began training at Synaptyx during my junior year of high school, and it completely changed my outlook on training. What once felt like a chore became a passion, helping me grow stronger and improve both the consistency and distance in my golf game. Beyond the physical results, the coaching staff and community at Synaptyx played a major role in my development, and I wouldn't be the athlete or person I am today without being part of the Synaptyx team."
Elyssa Abdullah
Golf • University of Wisconsin–Madison
"Synaptyx has played a major role in my athletic development. Coach Tony’s training has made me faster, stronger, and more explosive—directly improving my speed, vertical, and preparation for both my college season and the fire academy. Zach’s rehab and recovery work has been just as impactful, strengthening my knees and allowing me to train and compete in volleyball without setbacks. What truly sets Synaptyx apart is the environment, combining high-level coaching, recovery, and a community that genuinely supports its athletes."
Aleesa Zebold
Volleyball • North Central College / Future Firefighter
"Training and recovering at Synaptyx has played a major role in my development as a hockey player. Under Coach Tony’s guidance, my speed, strength, and explosiveness improved significantly, helping elevate my game from AA to AAA. I played nearly 80 games this season and stayed healthy throughout, which made a major difference in my performance and consistency on the ice. Synaptyx also prepared me physically for tryouts and camps, and I’m excited to continue developing my hockey career with Coach Tony and the Synaptyx team."
Lucca Ortega
Hockey • Chicago Phantoms
"I started coming to Synaptyx in the summer of '23 around the time Synaptyx had opened. I was overweight and out of shape and nowhere near where I wanted to be physically for my college baseball career. Tony and all the other professionals here have helped me get stronger, faster, more athletic, and more importantly, healthier overall and they are a huge part of why I'm currently one of the captains on my team at St Norbert College. For any up and coming middle school or high school athletes, Tony and Synaptyx is 100% the place to go to reach your full potential."
Tyler Dean
Baseball • St. Norbert College / Limestone University
"My time at Synaptyx Health and Performance has been truly transformational. After recovering from a back injury, training with Coach Tony helped me become faster, stronger, and healthier, elevating my tennis career and igniting a passion for training and nutrition. Under Coach Tony's guidance, I transitioned into powerlifting, competed with the University of Illinois, and finished the year ranked top 100 in the world for my age and weight. Synaptyx's ability to combine elite coaching and recovery under one roof has allowed me to continue growing, now preparing for collegiate nationals in powerlifting and my first men's physique bodybuilding show."

Sahil Shah
Tennis / Powerlifting • University of Illinois
"Training with Coach Tony and the Synaptyx team helped me become faster, stronger, and healthier than ever. That development led to my best season at Fenwick, where I earned Forward of the Year, Player of the Year, and All-State MVP honors. I now play for the Chicago Mission and continue to train and recover with Coach Tony as I pursue high-level junior and college hockey, crediting Synaptyx for my growth and long-term health."

Dominic Fosco
Hockey • Fenwick / Chicago Mission (AAA)
"Training at Synaptyx Gym was an experience I truly valued because of how closely it aligned with the demands of playing at a high level in the British Columbia Hockey League (BCHL). Working with Tony and Kevin, they pushed me beyond standard training, as every workout was intentional, hockey-specific, and focused on measurable improvement. The culture at Synaptyx emphasized discipline, consistency, and accountability, creating an environment where effort and progress were expected every day. The combination of expert coaching and a high-performance atmosphere made Synaptyx a place that played a key role in my athletic development."
