The Best Version Of You Starts Here

Been training at Newstrength for just over 2 months now getting programming and tailored PT sessions, can’t recommend these guys enough very knowledgeable, helpful and just an awesome all round experience. Has helped me a lot with some injuries I had been struggling with in such a professional manner. Get down and see these guys I guarantee you will be fitter faster and stronger in no time !!

Was welcomed with open arms and encouraging faces. Love the gym’s philosophies and the way they put effort into connecting with each person and their goals.

Joining Newstrength has been an absolute game changer in my life. It is such a welcoming and accepting gym filled with professionals and great people. You will always arrive and leave with a smile on your face. I can’t thank the staff enough!

After losing my love of gym for 12 months I was convinced to give the group environment at new strength a go. After about 20 minutes into my first session I was hooked. The community the staff have developed there is truly something special and it made getting back into my health and fitness goals easier and achievable. I’m extremely grateful for all their encouragement and support because without them I wouldn’t have made the progress I have today.

Newstrength is a place where anyone from anywhere can come to get fit and strong. Whether it’s doing the group classes or doing some 1 on 1, the coaches are amazing people who truely care and the whole community is full of good people. The training style here can suit anyone. If you’re looking for a place to start, this is the place. Training here has really changed me as a person physically and mentally and I always and will continue to look forward to training here. Thanks newstrength for everything. Lots of love for these people.

Signing up to Newstrength was by far the best decision I have ever made! When I started training at Newstrength over two years ago I was anxious to step back into a gym, but that quickly disappeared! The team genuinely care about each of their members and you can confidently walk in knowing that you're not just another number. Their constant check ins, motivation boosts and meticulously planned training programs are the reason I’ve stayed and will never leave! You guys are stuck with me forever :)

The guys here at Newstrength are on a different level. I first meet Nath and Jacob sometime around 2017 and I knew they had something different to anywhere else I had been before. At the time I was a pretty anxious dude and these guys put me at ease, got me training and helped grow my confidence. I went with the intention of losing a few kgs but ended up with real connections and a love of what Newstrength is. These guys go above and beyond. These guys taught me more than just lifting weights, they taught me about nutrition, they helped me manage injuries and adapt so I could still train and were genuinely good mates. After a bit of a stint away when life got a bit crazy I reconnected this year and all I’ve got to say is it’s only gotten better. For anyone sitting on the fence, just do it! Just check them out. The guys will be happy to have you along to check them out and see for yourself. You’ll be thankful you did.

Most gym environments can be overwhelming and expect you to handle everything on your own, but joining Newstrength has been one of the best health decisions I’ve ever made. The team is fantastic, providing support every step of the way. They consistently check in, ensure you’re challenging yourself, and help you take care of yourself, so you become strong and confident both in the gym and in life. I want to extend my gratitude to Nathan, Jacob, Annaliese, Brianna, and Jessie for all the support you give. I look forward to many more years with you!

Time to update my review, now that I have been a member for a few months.Joining NewStrength has been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. This isn’t just a gym, it’s a genuine community built on growth. In just a few months, I’ve become so much stronger and much more disciplined.Two things set NS apart, the community and the programming.Jacob and Nathan have created something truly special, a culture where members genuinely cheer each other on, the energy and atmosphere is incredible.The support here is unmatched, the coaches are authentic and knowledgeable and you can tell they are genuinely invested in your success.The programming is equally intentional and highly effective, every training block is designed to help you progress fast and safely. I've been shocked with how quickly I've been able to build strength and remain injury free.If you are on the fence, I highly recommend joining NS. You won't regret it.

Without a doubt, the best gym ever!Newstrength has been an absolute game changer for me. Ive been training for most of my life and over 17 years in gyms across Australia. The coaches at Newstrength are extremely knowledgeable and radiate an uplifting and safe space for clients to grow, learn and challenge themselves. Every coach is wonderful, people remember you name and they are genuinely invested in your progess and goals. This is reflected not only in the amazing structure of classes, run clubs and semi-private sessions but also through the smiley faces of gym members - ive never felt so welcome as a newcomer! Joining the Newstrength family has changed my 2025 for the better and I am very grateful and excited for 2026.

Not just a gym, but a beautiful supportive tight knit community. I have felt supported and welcome through my whole journey with newstrength. The coaches are amazing and make me look forward to each class! Ive seen great progress in my strength and conditioning even though I go twice a week to supplement my sport, proving the quality of their programs.

After quite a few years I took the plunge back into training, and quickly learnt I'd made the right choice with Newstrength! Despite my apprehensions it's been a positive experience from day 1. The staff and the other gym-goers made me feel welcome immediately and embraced me into the amazing culture at Newstrength! The programming is on-point and the team ensures that everyone, despite their fitness level is supported to achieve their goals. I cannot recommend Newstrength enough!

The best gym I’ve come across in terms of knowledge, experience and dedication to providing the best possible training experience to each member, regardless of whether they do individual PT or the group sessions. So much thought goes into their programming. All the trainers are kind, welcoming, experienced, and so keen to help you achieve whatever goals you have. They genuinely embody the “stronger every day” mindset. Special shout out to my PT Jess - her empathy, kindness, graciousness and just all round awesomeness has kept me coming back week after week and somehow made getting up at 4.30am a semi-enjoyable thing.

This is the gym to go to if you want to feel welcome, motivated and enjoy your workout. The classes are great as a newbie and challenge you to keep improving. All the staff (and members) are very friendly and inclusive. The coaches will answer any question you have and help you reach your goals. I’m enjoying every session!! :)

I was super nervous about starting training. The whole team has been welcoming, making the training work for me and ensuring the gym feels like a great place to be. Thank you!

I came into Newstrength 2 years ago having never touched a weight before, with little motivation to get to the gym frequently, no concept of what being strong felt like, and a heavy dislike of how skinny I had always been. I’m now here, 2 years later, hitting PBs I never thought I’d hit, with over 10kg more muscle on my body, complaining when I have to miss even one day at the gym. The environment that Newstrength provides in both the Herstrength and Newstrength classes makes it 110% easier to continue to turn up each day and make the progress you need to make. Whether it’s going for coffee after a 6:30am class or going to the beach after a 6pm class, Newstrength is much more than just a gym and the community and friendship it provides so effortlessly make it one of the most valuable additions to my life.

As a hardworking shift worker, who works in country NSW, I always find myself coming back to Newstrength in Newcastle as it provides the best training methods for my circumstances.My personal favourite: The 9:30am classes allow me to enough time to recover my Circadian rhythms after 12.5hr shifts. The peace of mind that these newstrength classes have given me makes this gym a top class gym. Friendly coaching along with subtle tweaks to my lifting techniques, understandable programs and well mapped out pacing, make this gym; probably, the top 1 of all hunter valley base gymnasiums.The big owner dad dees: Jacob and Nath have truly created the perfect gym zeitgeist. Newstrength has definitely been my favourite investment.

I have been training at newstrength for over 2 years now and can’t see myself training anywhere else. The staff are focused on your physical and mental health and there’s always a coach with a bit of expertise in whichever area of fitness you want to pursue. It feels like my second family at my home away from home. 10/10 would recommend.

Great gym with a variety of programs for all different levels. All the trainers are super knowledgeable & make you feel right at home! I've signed up to 2 different gyms previously & Newstrength is the only one I've felt comfortable coming back to. Couldn't recommend Newstrength enough!

I have been training at NewStrength for over 4 years&it is by far the best gym I have ever been to & I have been to quite a few in my 50 something years!Jacob & Nathan have created a very friendly, all inclusive space where everyone is made to feel welcome &included no matter your age or fitness level.  All the coaches are amazing! Training at NewStrength for me is like being with family with lots of laughs, lots of whinging & lots of sore muscles (in a good way).I hope to be training there forat least another 30 years 🤪

I was introduced to the Newstrength team just over 12 months ago and I can honestly say that I’ve finally found my happy gym place!  This 50 something lady enjoys the company and encouragement of everyone I come into contact with at Newstrength. Every session is unique and led by a team who care about us, are knowledgeable, and are great people. I learn, I laugh, I am often (good) sore but I wouldn’t be anywhere else.

Newstrength has honestly changed my life for the better. Even though I had been to the gym before I never knew what I was doing at the end of the day. I would walk in throw stuff around and leave.The coaches continuously educate you on what you’re doing and why, especially when introducing new movements or exercises. If an exercise is too difficult or you have an injury, the coaches can always provide a solution or can offer a progression so you don’t feel like your missing out, which is incredible.After training with a PT for a while and consistently showing up to the group classes, I was fortunate enough to participate in my first powerlifting competition, placing 3rd. I could not of done it without the amazing support of all the coaches, helping me every step of way! They truly are family 🥲

Been training at Newstrength over the past 3-4 years and only have positive things to say. Jacob, Nathan and the whole team have created such an incredible environment to train in. Everyone is welcoming, supportive and just all-round great people. Having recently undergone an ACL reconstruction, Newstrength have provided me specific programs to accommodate, all the while giving me an environment to rehab and allow myself to return from injury better then I was before. Absolutely love this place and everyone involved

Newstrength has given me the variety in training that I didn’t know I needed. Pair that with top tier programming & coaching, I have never felt fitter, stronger & as mentally capable as I do. Thank you Newstrength and especially 5pm 💙 …

Great gym with an awesome community feel. The programming is fun, varied and keeps me engaged, and the overall vibe makes it easy to stay consistent.I still play local footy but wanted to improve my overall strength, and the coaches really know their stuff and genuinely want to see you improve.The gym also offers great programs and challenges throughout the year that keep you focused and motivated.I’d recommend it for all levels you won’t be let down.
