8 weeks. 3 spaces. Let's finish the year strong. 💪

We're kicking off a new 8-week Strong Squad strength cycle, and we've got *3 spaces available* 🔥

So if strength training has been sitting somewhere on your "I really need to get back into that..." list, this is a pretty good time to start.

Strong Squad is structured, progressive strength training in a small, supportive group. 👯‍♀️

You get a proper program to follow.
A coach there to help.
Exercises that can be adjusted when needed.
And a group of people who'll probably notice if you don't turn up. 👀

Strong Squad is a good fit if you:

✔️ want to get stronger but don't know where to start
✔️ struggle to stay consistent training alone
✔️ want to return to strength training after an injury or time away
✔️ like being coached but don't want personal training
✔️ want training to actually feel enjoyable again

You absolutely do NOT need to already be fit or strong before joining.

We're starting the new 8-week cycle this week and only have 3 spaces available.

Send us a DM if you'd like to know more about Strong Squad or whether it would be a good fit for you. 💚

A small mindset shift that can change the way you see training 👇🏽

I get to move my body.
I get to build strength.
I get to work towards something.
I get to do something today that future me will thank me for. 💪🏽

Training isn’t always easy, but being able to do it is something worth appreciating. 💚

Injury rehab can get complicated pretty quickly. 😅

Stretch this. Roll that. Rest. Get a massage. Try dry needling. Do these 10 exercises. Avoid that movement. Fix your technique. 🤯

And all of those options come with a cost.

Sometimes that's *time and effort*
Consistently completing your rehab, modifying your training or gradually rebuilding strength. 😮‍💨

Sometimes it's *money*
Booking a massage, dry needling or other treatment.
💸💸💸

So if you're going to invest your time, effort *or* money into your recovery, it's worth asking:

*What's actually going to have the biggest impact?*

That doesn't mean things like massage, dry needling, stretching, and foam rolling are useless. They can be really helpful for managing symptoms and helping you feel better. 🙏🏼

But feeling better temporarily and *building your body's capacity to handle the things you want to do again* aren't necessarily the same thing. ❌

For most people, the bigger wins come from getting the basics right:

✔️ Keep moving where you can
✔️ Manage aggravating activities and training load
✔️ Gradually rebuild strength and capacity
✔️ Progress back towards the activities that matter to you
✔️ Stay consistent long enough to let your body adapt

Some of those things require more time AND effort.

They're not always the quickest or easiest option...

But they're often the things that actually move your recovery forward. 💪

➡️➡️You don't need to do everything. You need to focus your resources on the things that move the needle.

Not sure where your time, effort or money is best spent? We can help you build a rehab plan that gets you back to what you love.🤓

Sometimes the biggest change in rehab isn't your exercises. 👀

It's the way you think about recovery. 💭

Small mindset shifts can change how you approach pain, setbacks, and progress, making it easier to stay consistent over the long term.

Which reframe hit home for you? Let us know in the comments👇

If you're struggling with an injury and want a clear plan to get back to doing what you love, we'd love to help. 💙💚

Making friends as an adult isn't always easy.

Somewhere between work, family, and life, it gets harder to find your people.

That's why we love what we've built at Next Level. Strength training is just part of it. The friendships, support, and laughs along the way are what make it special.

Here's to being stronger for every adventure. 🏔️💚

Adult friendships don't usually happen by accident.

They happen because you keep showing up to the same place, with the same people, doing hard things together.

The strength is a bonus. The community is what keeps you coming back. 💚

Runner's knee is super common in active people, but it doesn't always mean stop running!

In many cases, the problem isn't running itself. It's that the knee isn't currently tolerating the amount of load being placed on it. 😵

The good news? With the right rehab plan, most people can continue some level of activity while rebuilding strength, improving load tolerance, and returning to running with confidence. 👏🏼

If knee pain has been limiting your training, we'd love to help.

The best part of knee rehab isn’t always running a marathon or hitting a PB...

Sometimes it’s the moment you realise you stopped thinking about your knee.

The little wins matter. They’re usually the signs you’re heading in the right direction 🙌

Need help developing a knee rehab plan? Send us a DM, let's chat. ☺️

Big mistake: giving up rehab too early. 😵

Tendons are slow to adapt‼️

It can take 8-12 weeks just to *start* seeing meaningful changes.

➡️Full recovery often takes 3-6+ months!

But here’s what usually happens:

Pain improves a bit...
You go back to normal training.
It flares up again...
Repeat the pain cycle 🔁

Not because rehab “didn’t work", but because it wasn’t taken far enough.🫠

Good tendon rehab isn’t just about reducing pain.

It’s about:
✔️ Gradually increasing load
✔️ Building strength through range
✔️ Restoring tolerance so it doesn’t keep coming back

If your tendon pain keeps flaring up, it might not need a new exercise… It might just need more time, and better progression. 🧐

Send us a DM if you're not sure what stage your at or what to do next.
