Let's be honest. You know building strength & muscle is important.
The problem is that most workout apps are boring, knowing what to do is confusing, and finding the motivation to exercise is hard. 
Â
And it's even harder when you have a bunch of pissed off joints or are hypermobile and wake up every day in what feels like a different body. 
I know you've already tried:
...An endless number of YouTube workouts and fitness classes that seemed like they'd be good but left you without much reward for your effort - except maybe a sore knee or screaming neck. 
...12 or 16 week strength programs that were great, but once they ended, you didnât know what to do next. 
...Apps with robotic voices that gave you exercises either laughably easy or ridiculously hard. 
...Making up your own plan and working hard, but not seeing results - and maybe even feeling worse. 
Sound familiar? Itâs frustrating, but hereâs the good news...
Many of my clients suffer from hypermobility (cranky joints, and flare-ups), limited time (kids, work, life in general), mobility issues (and old injuries that need modification) and are in their 40's, 50's and beyond and are just now realizing they need to strength train.
You're not too old. You're not too injured. It's not too late. You can build strength and muscle at any age and any phase of life even if you've got shit going on.
TOTAL PACKAGE STRENGTH is an app based ongoing program that takes the guesswork out of building strength + muscle at home or in the gym with modifications for joint issues and hypermobility.
Within the app, you'll find exercise alternatives for every workout. So whether you need a modification or a way to make your workout harder, I've got you covered. 
So if you've been reading this page thinking "Yep, that sounds like me" then this program was created for you.

"I'd recommend the program to anyone, especially if they struggle with a chronic condition"
I've been using Nikki's app and I absolutely love the experience.
It's is EASY TO USE, and I appreciate the exercise variations that let me adjust for my energy and pain levels each day.
I appreciate how the exercises are paired, making each session feel effective. The workouts progress sensibly with built-in deload weeks, and you can easily adjust the schedule to fit your needs.
As someone who's hypermobile, Iâm impressed with the program and recommend it, especially if you have a chronic condition and need ADAPTABLE WORKOUTS.

I want more for you than "if it hurts, don't do it." đ
In my mid-twenties, I started falling apart.
I saw doctor after doctor, therapist after therapist, all telling me the same thing: "You're hypermobile. Expect pain. Forget about running or anything challenging. Strength training is dangerous for you. Stick to gentle exercise and light weights, or things will only get worse." đ€Šââïž
At first, I listened, but I only got weaker, and my pain worsened. That advice wasnât cutting it. I decided, if I was going to live with pain, I might as well be strong.Â
I started a progressive strength program and everything changed. My joints felt better, the pain eased, and I wasn't so damn tired all the time.Â
Fast forward to today.
Iâm 38, stronger than I was in my twenties. I have more muscle, I can deadlift more than my bodyweight, run without pain, carry my 1 year old daughter, and even help move a couch without fear of injury. Sure, I get the occasional flare, but overall, my hypermobility no longer feels like such a liability.Â
Everything I was told about my body was wrong. I wasnât doomed to get worse with age. I just needed to build strength and muscle to handle the activities I wanted to do.
After working with hundreds of people - some hypermobile and some not - who were given the same bad advice, I know there's a strong chance a progressive strength program can help you too. đ đ
THIS is why I created TOTAL PACKAGE STRENGTH.
Because we're all told that we need to be stronger, that muscle is important, and that we should lift heavy. But unless you know how to apply that information, it's wildly unhelpful advice.
What you need is a program. One that prepares you to lift heavy with exercise options to meet you where you're at, so you can build muscle and strength with less pain and injury.
Total Package gives you this all from the convenience of an app. đđđ
What is Total Package Strength?
A progressive app based strength program designed to increase strength, muscle mass, and stamina delivered in a mobile app that tells you exactly what to do and tracks your progress. It includes exercise alternatives to modify for joint issues and hypermobility or make the workout harder when needed.
The commitment is 3 months. But really there are four 3 month cycles that build upon each other. My goal for you is that by the end of 12 months, you're stronger and you have more muscle with fewer injuries.Â

How the exercise alternatives work
What if I need accountability or support?!
You wonât always feel motivated, and thatâs normalâbut there are proven strategies that can help you stay on track. Things like accountability from a coach or community, and taking a few minutes each week for self-reflection, can make a huge difference in your progress.
Thatâs why Iâve included these features in the program:

Client Success Stories đ
"It is not an exaggeration to say that working with Nikki has changed my life."
I'm 54, perimenopausal, hypermobile and have a history of easily injuring myself. Being both STRONG and BENDY, it has been easy for me to blow past my limits and then get injured and exhausted.
Working with Nikki has taught me to HONOR and ACKNOWLEDGE where I'm at and set realistic goals to not trigger pain, and exhaustion.
Nikki is very supportive and responsive to any questions or feedback and the app is easy to use, HAS GREAT VIDEOSÂ and it's easy to keep track of your personal training details.Â

To use your HSA or FSA for Total Package Strength, youâll need to submit a receipt and a Letter of Medical Necessity to your account administrator. Most claims are processed within a few days, but timelines may vary.
If youâd like to use your HSA or FSA, email me at hello@naablevy.com. Iâll send you a link to verify eligibility and get your Letter of Medical Necessity through TrueMed, the service I partner with for this process.
Note: There is a $20 fee for this step, but if you join Total Package Strength, Iâll give you a $20 discount code to apply to your first payment, on top of any other promos Iâm offering.
- How much experience do I need?
This is a novice to intermediate level program.Â
Thanks to the exercise swaps, which make it easy to scale exercises up or down, this program is a good fit for you if:
- Youâre comfortable with using dumbbells, bands, and / or barbells. (Barbells are NOT required to follow this program)
- Youâve done any of my intro strength programs, including Kettlebells Made Simple, PUSH IT, or Strength for Hypermobility.
- You have a history of pain or injury, but you understand how to modify exercises to meet your needs when presented with options.
This program is NOT a good fit for you if:
- Youâre brand new to using dumbbells and bands.
- Youâre currently struggling with chronic pain that makes it difficult for you to perform day to day tasks.
- Youâre unable to safely get up and down off the ground.
- You have a recent, active, and untreated injury.
- You have not been cleared to exercise by your medical provider.
If you are unsure of if this program will be a good fit for you, email me at hello@naablevy.com and Iâll be happy to help you make an informed decision.
- Can I do this program Iâm hypermobile or have pain & injuries?
This program is a good fit if youâre comfortable modifying exercises and can safely work out on your own.
However, if you have unmanaged chronic pain (meaning youâre not working with a doctor or physical therapist), untreated injuries, or fear of exercising unsupervised, this program isnât right for you at this time.
Total Package Strength includes options and adjustments for those with hypermobility and support and feedback from me to help you modify as needed.
You should join if:
- You want to get stronger and need a program with hypermobility considerations.
- Youâre comfortable using dumbbells and bands.
- You can safely get up and down off the ground.
- You can follow a program independently and make adjustments as needed.
- Youâve been cleared to exercise by a medical provider.
This program is NOT for you if:
- Youâre struggling with chronic pain that makes it difficult to do even small amounts of movement.
- You canât safely get up and down off the ground.
- You have a recent, active, and untreated injury.
- You havenât been cleared to exercise.
- You donât feel safe exercising unsupervised.
- Is this program a good option for me if Iâm not hypermobile?
Absolutely. This program is appropriate for hypermobility, but it is not a hypermobility specific program.Â
If youâre looking for an effective app based program with lots of options that you can do at home or in the gym, then this program is probably a good fit for you.
- What equipment is needed for this program?
Whether youâre working out at home or the gym, Total Package Strength is designed so you can follow the program in both environments.

Required equipment:
- A medium and heavy set of dumbbells (I recommend the adjustable ones if youâre working out at home!)
- Jumpstretch bands
- A door anchor or something sturdy like a squat rack to tie the band to â
- Please do NOT skip purchasing a door anchor if you need one. It will be very difficult to follow the program and you can get one for under $10!
- A light and medium looped / mini band
- A chair, box, or bench that you can safely sit on.
Nice to have, but not required:
Youâll see exercises that utilize this equipment in the program, but you can follow the program without them due to the exercise swaps!
- Gliding discs (paper plates, furniture sliders, or wash clothes work as well)
- Pull-up bar
- Foam roller
- 2 yoga blocks
- A weight bench
- If youâre shopping around, itâs nice to have an adjustable bench, BUT for this program in its current iteration, all the exercises can be done on a non adjustable bench.
- Kettlebells
- Something you can safely step on and off of (e.g. a box, weight bench, step aerobics bench, oversized yoga block, or staircase.
- Barbells and / or a squat rack
Note, you do NOT need barbell experience to complete this program, nor is this program designed to teach you how to use barbells BUT if you have a basic understanding of barbell technique + how to use them safely and want a program that includes them for the major lifts (squat / deadlift / chest press / OH press) and occasional exercise variations, barbell exercise swaps have been included for you!
- What are the video demos like? Is coaching included?
All of the demo videos inside the app are 10 to 30 seconds long with short written instructions and no verbal cues.
Longer form video tutorials can also be found inside the Total Package Resource Library for many of the exercises.Â
If you need support, you can message me directly inside the Everfit app. Hereâs some ways that I can help you within the app:
- Feedback on form if you send me a video
- Assistance adjusting or modifying the program to fit your needs
- Answering any questions that pop up about the program
- Giving you a different option for one of the exercises if for some reason none of the exercise alternatives work for you
Hereâs what does NOT come with the app:
- I wonât be checking in on you. If you need support, I am here to help, but you will need to reach out to me đ
- I cannot write you an entirely custom program. I am happy to help you adjust the workouts and exercises, but am unable to write you something from scratch.Â
- I cannot give you personalized nutrition advice. That is outside the scope of this program.Â
- What’s the difference between the programs? Can I switch programs? Are they all the same price?
Standard program workouts
- Take 45 to 60 minutes on average, but some may vary in length.
- 2x/week option, youâll do 7 strength exercises per workout,
- 3x/week option, youâll do 6 strength exercises per workout.
Low volume program workouts
- Take 30 to 45 minutes, but may vary in length
- Both the 2x/week and 3x/week options have 5 strength exercises per workout
- Fewer sets and reps than the standard volume program
- Great fit if you prefer shorter workouts or struggle with recovery
You can switch between programs at any time. Email me at hello@naablevy.com or message me in the Everfit App for assistance.
Please note that the programs are all the same price, because ultimately the programming youâre getting is very similar â itâs just been adjusted to fit your needs and preferences for how the exercises are split up across each day.
Additionally, you get the same access to the resources library, bonus workshops, community forums, and personalized support from me with the ability to move across the different options as needed based on the season of life youâre in or how your body feels.
- What's the refund policy? Can I pause the program? Will I be able to access the program after I cancel?
21 Day No Questions Asked Refund Policy: You can request a refund within 21 days of gaining access to the program through the Everfit app by sending an email to hello@naablevy.com. Once your refund is processed, your access to the program and any associated materials will be revoked.
Can I pause my subscription? Unfortunately, you canât pause your subscription.
However, if you need to cancel, youâre welcome to rejoin during any period of time when enrollment is open. If you have any questions about rejoining, feel free to email me at hello@naablevy.com and Iâll be happy to assist you!
Can I access the program after I cancel?
If you cancel your membership, you will have access to workouts inside the app and the Total Package Resource Library through the end of your current billing period.
Once your billing period has ended, you will no longer be able to access any of the materials.
Think of it like Netflix or any other subscription service. Once you cancel your subscription and your pay period is over, you can no longer watch any of the shows or movies. The same idea applies here.
- Can I use kettlebells instead of dumbbells?
It depends on the exercise, but you will still most likely need bands and dumbbell as there are very few exercise alternatives featuring kettlebells.
This is because for strength exercises such as step-ups, floor presses, rows, squats, farmer carries, deadlifts, overhead presses, and split squats the set-up and usage of a kettlebell and dumbbell are almost identical, so it doesnât make sense to film separate videos with them.
Additionally, there arenât very good kettlebell exercise alternatives for certain exercises such as bicep curls, lateral raises, or rear delt flies, which is why you wonât see any kettlebell exercise alternatives for them.
Where kettlebells are generally superior to dumbbells is ballistic exercises like kettlebell swings, kettlebell cleans to back stepping lunges, ect.
There isnât a lot of ballistic work in the program, because the focus of the program is strength and muscle building and ballistic exercises arenât as effective for those particular physiological adaptations. This is because ballistic movements require lighter weights to do well and safely and you need a heavier weight and slower tempo to build strength and muscle.
There are a handful ballistic exercises sprinkled into the program as exercise alternatives where it makes sense to include them, but this is not a kettlebell program.
- What are the workout splits / focus of each workout?
If you choose 2 workouts a week, then your workout split will be:
- Day 1: Squat + Chest Press with Upper Body Push / Pull
- Day 2: Deadlift + Overhead Press with Upper Body Push / Pull
If you choose the 3 workouts a week, then your workout split will be:
- Day 1: Chest Press with Upper Body Push & Lower Body Accessory
- Day 2: Squat with Upper Body Pull
- Day 3: Deadlift + Overhead Press with Upper Body Push / Pull
Workouts also include accessory work such as bicep curls, lateral raises, core exercises, triceps extensions, ect.
If you choose to use barbells, then your squat will be a back squat, chest press will be a bench press, etc.Â
- Can I use my computer to access the workouts?
For the best experience, the program is designed to be accessed on a mobile phone.
While some tablets may work, the app is NOT available on desktop computers.
- Are there travel workouts? Is cardio or conditioning included?
There is an option for shorter resistance band based travel workouts!
To gain access to these travel workouts, you can find them in the resources library within the app OR you can email or message me and Iâll enter them into your account for you.
At this time, cardio and conditioning are not included in the program.

"The app is super clear with great videos, helpful adaptations and modifications"
I live in Asia and do not have easy access to a gym, however I have found following the app to be really EASY and ACCESSIBLE. It is exactly what I needed to get back into strength based work.
The app is super clear with great videos, HELPFUL ADAPTATIONS and MODIFICATIONSÂ and I am enjoying the way it progresses each month.
Recently I injured my ankle. Nikki went above and beyond to create some videos about how to modify with an ankle injury, it really lifted my spirits and helped me realize that I can work around my injury and I can CONTINUE TO BUILD STRENGTH.Â

Try the program risk free!
I get it. Health and fitness programs have probably left you feeling jaded and with good reason. Too many coaches and programs sell you hope, but donât deliver results.
Thatâs why I offer a 21-day, no-questions-asked refund policy. If you join and decide within the first few weeks that the program isnât for you, youâll get a full refund. No questions asked.
