What’s your out there?

“I want to be able to run.”
“I want to catch myself when I trip.”
“I want to do a Spartan.”
“I want to climb mountains in Iceland.”
“I want to keep up with my kids. Forever.”

Some could already do it when they walked in. Most couldn’t yet. Wanting to is enough to start.

Basecamp

Where you get strong for out there.

Grouse is a small strength studio in Hawthorn East. We train in small groups, with smart programming and coaches who know your name.

You come back stronger each time.

Nobody stays at basecamp.

The Program

The Strength Loop

STRENGTH VOLUME POWER FOUNDATION

Four qualities cycled year-round: strength, volume, power and foundation. You keep progressing without ever starting over. Four full-body sessions a week, plus two conditioning days.

It’s built to last, because the things you’re training for take longer than twelve weeks.

The Guides

Coached by people who’ve been out there.

Every Grouse coach has done hard things themselves. When they write your program, they’re drawing on what they’ve actually done.

Field Notes

People who keep coming back.

“I’ve never stuck to a gym membership for anywhere near this long. The programming meets my needs exactly — resistance training, compound lifts, progressive overload. It’s so rewarding to see your progress over time.”

“They understand that some days, the best thing you can do is simply show up and do your best, because life happens. The studio doesn’t feel like a typical gym.”

“I joined for the structure and programming. I’ve stayed because of the community. I’ve not only stayed consistent — I’ve pushed myself to take on more sessions.”

You’ll probably enjoy training with us if…

There’s something out there you want to be ready for, or you’d like help finding it.

You’d rather be coached through it than left alone with a program.

You like training with the same people, in a room where the coach knows your name.

You’re in it for life, and you know a quick fix won’t get you there.

This is for people training for something out there.
