I trained with Coach Tate for almost 3 years. He really helped me get started on regular workout routines with a lot of patience, expert guidance and always strong encouragement. It was difficult for me to stay motivated and avoid injuries but Coach Tate diligently helped me through it all.

90 Day Habit Transformation Client I worked with Michael on the 90 Day Habit Transformation program and it was everything and more than I expected! I was struggling to keep up with my workouts and because of my profession, I am traveling often and nutrition seemed unmanageable. I had tried it all. The diets, the workouts and taking advice from influencers on Instagram. Nothing worked for me. Then a colleague at our firm suggested I reach out to Michael. Of course I was skeptical at first, but made the decision to invest in myself and I can tell you that its one of the best decisions I have ever made for my health. Michael is is extremely knowledgeable in fitness, nutrition and most importantly for me, habits. I was impressed all around. I have now been working with him for over three years and still see him every week and I am in the best shape of my life! I highly recommend Michael and Forge.

Highly recommend! I worked with Coach Tate for about a year. I was feeling very hopeless when I joined because of problems in both my knees and didn’t know how to move forward. He listened carefully to all my concerns and was able to craft workouts that helped me build strength and confidence without aggravating my injuries. So glad I found him!

Forge is great! A year and a half after starting with them and I can't believe how strong I've gotten. Cam, my trainer, is extremely knowledgeable, attentive, and supportive. He's customized routines for me after an injury and while traveling in a remote location so I could continue to make progress. I would not have felt able to come up with those plans myself, let alone motivate myself to do them. The accountability is key. Cam has celebrated my successes with me each time and his encouragement has been crucial to my fitness journey. Also, something I really appreciate about Cam and the coaches at Forge is that they all have advanced training in exercise physiology, they're not just people who like working out and do this as a side hustle. There's so much bad advice and hype online about fitness and it's incredibly valuable to have a professional in your corner who knows what really works and what doesn't.

Truly worth the investment—I’ve been working with Coach Cam for almost 2 years now and the results have been amazing! I have two herniated discs that can be difficult to work around but he’s been extremely helpful & supportive, creating personalized workouts to strengthen my back while also targeting fat loss. Coach Cam has also been wonderful helping me with my nutrition goals as well—he really focuses on finding a healthy balance when making food choices, which has helped me ease years of anxiety around food and dieting. The app is great and I love that I can track all my fitness and nutrition in the same place. I’ve lost 30+lbs to date and am continuing to see many lifestyle improvements!

I’ve been working with Coach Sammy for 2+ years now and she has been instrumental in my healthy habit forming and driving consistency in my life. Having worked with her for this long, she’s seen my dips and peaks and is always available with advice and encouragement to keep me on a healthy path. The virtual coach format works so well for me because I like to exercise at home. The async communication + monthly check ins are a perfect balance for those who have trouble getting to a gym and/or have social anxiety around fitness!

If you’ve ever researched personal trainers, you know the costs can start at $65 an hour, on top of gym memberships. I’ve spent a small fortune on gym memberships, trainers, and online resources in the past, but Forge is both affordable and accessible—and it works. The program is user-friendly, the app is easy to use, and the 1:1 coaching and program-building are tailored to my specific needs. When I travel, Sam provides customized workouts to keep me on track, even if I don't have access to a gym. She adjusts my program based on my goals, and I love the flexibility of meeting monthly, weekly, or biweekly depending on where I am in my fitness journey. I also appreciate that I can work out at home or in the gym, and the community offers great support and encouragement alongside my coach. While I don’t personally use the menu or food plan options, I believe in learning how to fuel your body yourself instead of following a strict regimen. However, I do use the meal planner for some great recipe ideas! If you're looking for an affordable, personalized fitness experience with real human support, Forge Fitness is the way to go. Thank you Sam, you are the best!

I've been working with Coach Sammy for over a year and a half now and have achieved SO much! When I was looking to sign up for a program, I wanted something that helped with both my exercise routine as well as my diet and Forge delivers on both of those goals! I love being able to track my daily meals to reach my goals and having my exercise program loaded for me each and every day is so easy and user friendly. It's nice to not have to think of what I need to do each day, it's there and ready for me to start! Coach Sammy has seen my incredible highs and some of my lows when I'm discouraged and is always there to support me when any kind of self doubt tries to creep in. She's helped retrain my thinking of my overall health and I'm proud to say I've lost over 60 lbs so far and built muscle I never knew I could! Forge is set up in a way to give you as much support as you need and I definitely recommend it if you're looking specifically for support in your workouts and dietary needs!

Forge is fantastic, I’ve been using it for a few years now and really happy with coaching and ability to track meals. Only feedback and downside is coach availability can sometimes be a bit further out than desired, so book early and often to ensure regular check ins. Workouts are clear and easy to follow and building meals originally felt hard and clunky but once i figured it out it’s been a breeze
