Old doesn’t always mean outdated. Sometimes it means it’s stood the test of time 😉👌🏼

Our Nautilus pin-loaded machines are a perfect example.

They might not be the newest machines on the market, but they’re quality pieces of equipment that have been training our members for years — and they still deliver.

We service them regularly. We’ve had the seats and benches reupholstered. We keep them maintained and looked after.

And lately, we’ve had more and more new and visiting members commenting on just how good the equipment at Our Gym actually is. One member even called us a “hidden gem.”

We love bringing in new equipment, and there are definitely more new pieces planned for the next 6–12 months.

But our Nautilus? We’re not rushing to replace something that still works this well.

Quality equipment.
Properly looked after.
Built to last.

Sometimes, the best equipment isn’t the newest — it’s the equipment that’s still doing the job years later.

Ever looked at our new SkiErg upstairs and wondered what on earth it actually does? 😂

Well, here's a quick look!

The SkiErg is a great full-body cardio workout that builds strength and endurance while getting your heart rate pumping. It works your arms, core and upper body, with your legs helping drive the movement too.

Whether you're warming up, adding some variety to your workout or pushing yourself through a cardio session, it's another great piece of equipment to add to your training.

Give it a go next time you're upstairs! ❤️

NEW I ❤️ OG car stickers!

Grab yours from reception and show some love for our little local business next time you're out and about!

STRONGER FITTER HEALTHIER TOGETHER ❤️🏋🏼💪🏼

Trust is everything… Although we're not sure Karen was feeling quite so confident with a toilet roll flying towards her head! 🤣

In all seriousness, we're incredibly lucky to have a team we trust, support and genuinely love working alongside.

Amazing people, great energy and a shared passion for making Our Gym the best it can be.

It's our people that make us who we are ❤️

You can look for the cheapest gym membership... You can also look for the cheapest haircut. 😂 Your choice!

Over the last six years, one of the biggest things we have learnt is that cheap and value aren't necessarily the same thing.

So we're not trying to be the biggest or cheapest gym in the Bay anymore.

We're focused on creating something we're genuinely proud of. A gym where people feel welcome, supported and part of something. Where the facilities, equipment, classes, coaching and community all add up to something that is worth being part of.

Because at the end of the day, it's not just about what you pay for a gym membership. It's about what you get out of it.

And that's something we'll continue to invest in, every single day.

What happens after staffed hours in a 24/7 gym… 😂

The majority of OG members are honestly legends, but every now and then our morning crew have walked into the most bizarre things 🫣🤣

A friendly reminder of our 24/7 gym rules:
🏋🏼 Pack away your weights
🧹 Leave equipment tidy
❤️ Respect the space and the people who use it after you

We love that you can train anytime, team.
Let’s keep OG a place we’re all proud of!

#OurGymNelsonBay #24HourGym #CaughtOnCamera

We have something else to tell you…

Tim and Lauren have been keeping a little secret, and we can’t wait to share what’s behind this door 🤫

Another exciting chapter for Our Gym Nelson Bay is coming… and trust us, you’re going to want to be part of this one.

Stay tuned. Something new is taking shape at OGNB ✨

🚴‍♀️ THE STANDARD IS HIGHER HERE

Anyone can jump on a bike and pedal. But coaching a great cycle class? That takes more.

At Our Gym Nelson Bay, we have high expectations of our cycle instructors, because our members deserve more than someone who simply jumps on a bike and makes it up as they go.

Our Les Mills RPM and Sprint instructors undertake three intensive face-to-face days of specialised training, followed by at least eight weeks of coaching, practice and preparation before being assessed. That's a serious investment in learning the programs, developing coaching skills and delivering an incredible experience for our members.

And there's another expectation we have: our instructors wear cycle cleats 👟🚴‍♂️

Why? Because the right equipment matters.

❤️ A more secure connection to the pedals and more consistent foot positioning.

🔥 More efficient power transfer to help you make the most of every pedal stroke.

💪🏼 Better control and stability when the intensity builds, the resistance goes up and those heavy climbs hit.

⚡ A more effective ride when combined with correct bike setup, technique, posture and alignment.

Think of it like a tradie wearing their work boots on the job site. You use the right tools and equipment for the work you're doing. We put our cleats on when we step into the cycle studio because they help us do our job better.

And we're loving seeing more and more of our members making the switch, too! Once you experience the difference, you'll understand why we rate them so highly.

The good news? You don't need to spend a fortune. You don't need the most expensive shoes on the market to get started.

If you're unsure what to buy, pop into Salamander Cycles and chat with their team, or have a chat with Lauren at OG. She can point you in the right direction, including what to look for if you're shopping online.

Specialised training.
The right equipment.
Quality coaching.

It's the little details that make a big difference, and at Our Gym Nelson Bay, we're here to bring more to every ride ❤️🚴‍♀️

CONGRATULATIONS LAUREN

This weekend, Lauren travelled to Sydney for her Advanced Instructor Training with Les Mills RPM, and this morning she was back on the bike for our 8:30am class!

It was so good to see her bring everything she learnt over the weekend back into the studio 🚴‍♀️🔥

Advanced Instructor Training is all about taking your coaching to the next level, developing a deeper understanding of the program, and refining the connection, performance, motivation and coaching that make RPM such a special experience.

Lauren has been teaching RPM for four years, and her passion for the program shines through. We love seeing our instructors continue to learn, challenge themselves and grow in what they do.

And the best part? Our members get to benefit from all that learning, too!

We’re so proud to support Lauren on this journey and can’t wait to see what she brings to our cycle studio next.

Congratulations, Lauren! We’re so proud of you and this achievement ❤️

⚡ SCHEDULED POWER OUTAGE – THIS SATURDAY, 31 OCTOBER ⚡

A quick heads-up, Our Gym Nelson Bay crew!

AusGrid will be upgrading the cabling on our street this Saturday, resulting in a scheduled power outage from 8:00am until 2:00pm.

This means the gym will be CLOSED during this time, and we’ve made a few adjustments to our group fitness timetable for the weekend.

❤️ SATURDAY 31 OCTOBER Our only group fitness class will be:
🧘🏽7:00am Mat Pilates

❤️ SUNDAY 1 NOVEMBER We’re bringing you an extra class to make up for the Saturday changes!

🚴‍♀️ 8:30am RPM
🥊 8:30am BodyCombat – POP-UP CLASS!
🏋🏼 9:30am BodyPump

A little something extra to keep you moving and get your weekend fitness fix!

Once power has been restored following the scheduled outage, we’ll notify members via the MyClubFitness app.

Thank you all for your understanding and patience while AusGrid completes these essential upgrades.

❤️ Our Gym Nelson Bay

A LOT CAN HAPPEN IN 12 MONTHS 😱😍

12 months ago, Tim and Lauren were pulling all-nighters to transform an old Rivers retail store into the new home of Our Gym Nelson Bay.

Our five-year lease at the Diggers Club had come to an end, and we were starting from scratch.

We opened without our bathroom cubicles ready, without our cycle studio, without our upstairs training space, and with a gym floor that was well and truly crammed!

We didn't even have the whole building. Sharky's Pizza was still next door.

Fast forward 12 months, and look at how far we've come!

We've expanded into the shop next door, opened our upstairs training space, brought more equipment back, grown our timetable and continued improving our club every single day.

But our growth isn't just about the building. It's about the people.

This year, we've introduced dedicated Club Manager and Group Fitness Manager roles, welcomed new team members, instructors and personal trainers, and continued building a stronger team to support our growing community.

Behind all of this are our owners, Tim and Lauren, who have navigated their own challenges along the way.

Tim's ongoing recovery from a head injury has meant he has had to step back from teaching the classes he loves. Lauren has stepped up in so many ways, taking on more of the day-to-day running of the business and teaching additional group fitness classes.

All while they continue to raise and homeschool their three young children.

It's been a huge year of change, challenge, growth and determination.

We're proud of what we've built, but even prouder of the determination, teamwork and community that's helped us keep building it.

We're really excited to be opening our second location at Raymond Terrace while continuing to bring more exciting things to Nelson Bay!

To our members, team, instructors, personal trainers and everyone who has supported us along the way — thank you for being part of this journey.

Here's to the next 12 months ❤️💪🏼

🏋️ Les Mills programs you won't find offered anywhere else in the Bay

Over the past 6 years, we've listened to our members, built on what works and continually looked for ways to offer more. We don't change things just for the sake of it. We invest, improve and keep showing up.

We're not a big corporate chain. We're a family-owned small business, raising our family and building something we're incredibly proud of right here in our local community.

Small business. Big heart.

That's us! That's OG and that's REAL value!

STRONGER FITTER HEALTHIER TOGETHER ❤️💪🏼

"MAT PILATES IS MAKING A COMEBACK"

Our question is… WHERE DID IT GO?! 😂

At Our Gym Nelson Bay, it never left.

Our 6 mat Pilates classes each week are consistently fully booked, and our members can’t get enough.

With Chris and Sammy bringing years and years of experience across mat Pilates, reformer and beyond, it’s easy to see why. These women are incredible at what they do!

So, while mat Pilates might be having a moment on social media, around here, it’s business as usual 😉

And for our Pilates crew… Let’s just say there might be a little more to look forward to soon!

#OurGymNelsonBay #MatPilates #NelsonBay #PortStephens

SPRINT HAS OFFICIALLY LANDED AT OUR GYM NELSON BAY!

And Jono… WHAT A FIRST CLASS! 🚴‍♂️❤️

A fully booked room. 30 minutes of high-intensity training. Red faces, buckets of sweat, thumbs up all round and enough woohoo’s and yahoo’s to bring the roof down!

Our newest Sprint instructor, Jono, absolutely brought the energy tonight. A primary school teacher, dad of four and now officially part of our OG group fitness crew — we think it’s safe to say he nailed it! 👏🏼

One of the things that makes LES MILLS SPRINT different is the floor coaching. Getting off the bike, moving through the room and encouraging everyone from the back row to the front to dig a little deeper. And tonight, that energy was felt EVERYWHERE.

Every single person gave it their all, and the atmosphere was just incredible.

30 minutes.
All out.
Nothing held back.

🚴🏼‍♀️🚴🏼‍♀️🚴🏼‍♀️🔥
