The Perfect Fusion of Progressive Strength Training, Mobility, Agility, Endurance, Balance, and Cardiovascular Fitness Split training divides workouts into specific muscle groups and movement patterns, preventing overtraining and allowing adequate recovery for each group. This approach minimizes overall fatigue by giving muscles the time they need to repair and grow while you focus on other areas, aiding in the development of a better physique and significantly reducing the risk of injury. Hours of Operation Monday - Saturday Sessions are 50 minutes: 5:00 AM 6:10 AM 7:30 AM 8:30 AM Midday 4:30 PM 5:30 PM 6:30 PM (coming soon) Friday Same as above, but the last session starts at 4:30 PM (no 5:30 PM session). Saturday Open Gym: 8:30 AM - 10:30 AM Why No Sessions In The Weekend? Rest + Recovery is just as important as work time. We do not hold sessions over the weekend because rest and recovery are essential for a healthy body and effective training. Proper recovery helps prevent fatigue, supports muscle repair, growth and maximizes performance. Even if you decide to use the open gym on Saturday, we recommend avoiding excessive lower-body work. Monday is our designated lower-body training day, and overloading with too much volume beforehand can impact your results and recovery. This is a very well balanced training program with built-in rest and recovery to ensure sustainable progress. It’s not a WOD or random workout approach—this is intentional, science-backed training designed to build strength, resilience, and long-term success and safety.

A crucial aspect often overlooked when joining a fitness facility is the trainer's credentials. It's important to remember that a trainer quite literally has your well-being in their hands. A highly reputable facility will ensure its trainers are highly skilled and certified, as poor training often leads to injuries and poor progess. At Forge Fitness, we’ve found that the best trainers are highly skilled, professional personal trainers with a deep understanding of body mechanics and movement quality, backed by years of hands-on experience. Their expertise far surpasses that of individuals who have only led group fitness classes. From the large number of trainers we interview and test, we are fortunate if even one meets our standards—and to date, no trainer with experience solely in leading group classes has ever passed our test. Trainers are certified by the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM), recognized as the gold standard in the industry. Collectively, our team boasts over 60 years of combined experience, making them highly skilled and dedicated to helping you achieve your fitness goals. Typically, less experienced person leading a class might shout phrases like, "Go harder, do more!" or "You can lift more!" While these statements might sound motivating, they often result in burnout or injury. True training requires working closely with each individual, teaching proper movement, understanding their capabilities, and knowing when to push them forward—and when to hold them back.

50-Minute Session Starts Warm-Up Every session starts with a good warm-up on a low-impact machine, such as the Concept2 Rower, Skierg, BikeErg, or Rogue Air Bike. This helps get the body up to working temperature. We will show you how to use each piece of equipment, so do not be concerned if you're unfamiliar with it - we got you. Activation​ Get The Body Primed And Ready A proper movement activation helps to avoid injuries and promotes the flow of fluid around joints, enhancing lubrication and freedom of movement. It further improves the elasticity of muscles, tendons, and ligaments, aiding in a improvement of overall range of motion. Trainer Orientation​ Every session your trainer will always provide a detailed orientation. Every piece of equipment will be explained, demonstrating how to use it, and every movement will be shown and explained in detail - what muscles group a movement targets. Work Time Begins The Forge format are thoughtfully designed, making everything clear and easy to follow. You won’t get lost in the crowd because our classes are intentionally kept smaller. We don’t run around chaotically, dropping weights or performing bizarre movements. Instead, we focus on structured, effective, and safe training. Our trainers specialize in teaching proper technique and form first and formost. Finish You can cool down and roll out if you feel like it—we’ll have a chat with you afterward to ensure everything went well.

At Forge Fitness, we leverage the latest technology to elevate your training experience. From heart rate monitoring to advanced body scans that measure body fat, muscle mass, and muscle balance. To the best equipment, we provide the tools you need to track your progress with precision.

We take this very seriously. If you choose to take the 14-day trial, you will receive an intake/waiver form via email. This form includes a section for injuries. Please provide detailed and specific information about any past or present injuries. For example, if you have a back injury, specify the exact area (e.g., C1, C2) and explain what aggravates the injury. Our expert certified trainers work closely with individuals, carefully tailoring movements and exercises to suit their abilities. However, based on our experience, some individuals with certain injuries may be better suited for rehabilitation rather than weight training, especially if those injuries impair movement. If someone's injury, movement issues, or state of health are not suited for Forge, we are fully transparent about it. During the 14-day trial, our trainers and head movement expert will assess your situation to determine if Forge is the right fit for you. We will also request that you inform us immediately if you experience any issues during your trial. . If you have any concerns or questions, you can message us through our website or schedule an appointment for a chat and a tour of the gym. Craig, the owner, will personally meet with you, show you around, listen to your concerns, and do his best to answer your questions.

At Forge Fitness, our group training classes stand out with the widest variety of high-quality, specialized equipment, setting us apart from any other group fitness facility. We provide an extensive range of equipment designed to target all muscle groups effectively, incorporating both compound and isolation exercises. Many of our machines are purpose-built for isolation exercises, which are rarely available in typical group fitness settings. These exercises are essential for building a balanced, resilient, and injury-resistant body. We also recognize that everyone’s needs are unique, and certain movements may not be suitable for everyone, particularly those with injuries. For instance, if a barbell back squat isn’t ideal for you, we offer belt squats that remove strain from the back while effectively targeting the same muscle groups. Our specialized equipment, including leg curl machines, leg extensions, and pull-up machine, ensures you can build your body safely and effectively while minimizing injury risk. We offer only the best: a fleet of Concept2 Rowers, SkiErgs, BikeErgs, Rogue Echo Bikes, Jammer Arms, belt squats, cable machines, power racks, and much more. At Forge Fitness, our equipment and expertise ensure you train at your best and stay on the path to your fitness goals.
