How We Work With You at Instinct
It Starts With a Conversation
Every post-injury programme at Instinct begins with a consultation. We want to understand what happened, what your medical team has advised, how you are moving currently, and what your goals are. This conversation shapes everything that follows — and it means nothing we do is guesswork.
A Programme Built Around You
There are no generic post-injury programmes at Instinct. Every member’s situation is different — the injury, the surgery, the individual, the timeline — and the programme needs to reflect that. Your coach builds a plan specifically for you, progresses it based on how you respond, and adjusts it when needed.
Coaches Who Know What They Are Doing
Our team has over five decades of combined coaching experience. Between them, they have worked with members recovering from hip and knee replacements, spinal surgery, shoulder reconstruction, falls, strokes, cardiac procedures, and a wide range of gym injuries. You will not be working with someone figuring it out as they go.
Communication With Your Healthcare Team
Where appropriate, our coaches communicate directly with physiotherapists, consultants, and GPs to ensure your training supports your recovery rather than working against it. We also have a physiotherapy service operating from our premises — which means that for many members, both sides of their rehabilitation are in the same building and talking to each other.
Your Pace, Not Ours
We do not push for speed. We push for progress — and there is a meaningful difference. Every session is built around where you are that day, not where a generic programme says you should be. If something does not feel right, we adjust. That is what good coaching looks like.
