A few spaces have opened up in Strong Squad, our small group classes! 💪

If you want to get stronger, feel more confident with training, and actually enjoy the people you train with, this might be your kind of place. 👯‍♀️

Think proper strength training, in a small and supportive group, without the packed class feel.

You’ll train alongside a great group of people, with a coach there to guide the session, help with technique, and adapt exercises when needed. 🏋️‍♀️

And while getting stronger is the goal, we think training should be something you actually *look forward to each week.* 😊

There's plenty of encouragement, plenty of laughs, and a really good group of people to train alongside.

Whether you’re getting back into fitness after an injury, returning to exercise after some time off, or simply wanting to build strength in a more supportive environment, we’d love to have you join us. 💚

Want to know more?

Send us a DM or comment “more info” and we’ll help you find a class that suits you. 👋

Your rehab doesn’t have to be perfect to be worthwhile. 💚

Missed a few sessions? Had a busy week? Didn’t do everything you planned?

Doing something still counts.

One session is better than none. A few exercises are better than waiting for the “perfect” time to get back into it.

Consistency doesn’t mean perfection. It means you keep coming back to it. 💪

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. 💚

Looking for more than just another gym? Come meet your people.

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.

I showed up at the gym on Monday in tears. Shit I’ve been sad, not for any big reasons, just for a million small pressures that pile on my brain and make day to day life hard. But my gym mates, they’re the solid ones. They don’t care how I show up, only that I do. We hug, I cry, we lift, I feel better.

Today was testing day for squats and I was not confident. I’ve missed a few Wednesdays over the last couple of months and haven’t been training them consistently. I lost alot of confidence, which hit hard because my body is built for squats. Even lifting 50kg felt heavy and I went in today not expecting much.

I did 50. 60. 70. Didn’t think I’d get that far.
75. 80. 85. DID NOT THINK I’D GET THAT FAR.
90.
90FUCKING5!!! That’s my best ever!!!!

I don’t know how my clever strong body did that, but it did.

And I almost didn’t share this video because my arse and legs look huge and you can see all the cellulite, but that be some strong cellulite Flo.

I’m a strong girl even when I’ve missed a few Wednesdays.

I’m super grateful to @levelupwithaleana who has trained me for so many years we don’t know how many. And @nextlevel_strengthstudio and @jasonnorman333 and Ange and @heatherburnsartist my training buddies and counsellors 🤓

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 🙌
