Online Coaching for GLP-1 Users

GLP-1 Fitness and Nutrition Coaching Built Beyond Weight Loss.

Medication may help change appetite and body weight. Forge helps you build the personalized strength training, nutrition and daily habits that medication does not create for you. Work directly with a real coach who knows your plan.

Forge provides fitness, nutrition and habit coaching and does not prescribe, dispense or manage GLP-1 medication.

What GLP-1 Weight Loss Still Requires

Weight Loss Still Requires a Plan.

Medication may influence appetite and scale weight. It does not build physical strength, organize your nutrition or create the routines that support long-term progress. Forge coaching focuses on those three jobs.

Priority One

Build and Protect Strength

Your coach creates progressive resistance training around your current ability, available equipment and physical limitations.

  • Personalized strength programming
  • Progression based on your performance
  • Live or submitted-video form review
Priority Two

Create Practical Nutrition

Your nutrition approach is organized around your appetite, schedule, food preferences and realistic daily needs—not a rigid menu you cannot maintain.

  • Protein and meal structure
  • Hydration and food-quality priorities
  • Adjustments as appetite and routines change
Priority Three

Build Repeatable Habits

Progress depends on what happens between moments of motivation. Your coach helps turn useful actions into routines that fit your real life.

  • Realistic weekly actions
  • Accountability and direct coach feedback
  • Ongoing adjustments when life changes

The medication may be one tool. Your plan determines what you build around it.

Who This Coaching Is For

Built for People Who Need More Than Weight Loss.

Forge is for adults who want a structured plan for training, nutrition and habits while their healthcare provider remains responsible for medical treatment. You do not need previous training experience to begin.

Coaching May Fit You If

You Want a Plan That Works in Real Life.

Your coach starts with your actual ability, schedule, equipment, limitations and current routines—not an idealized version of what your life should look like.

  • You want to build or preserve strength while your body weight changes.
  • You need practical nutrition guidance as appetite, portions or eating patterns change.
  • You want direct access to a coach who can review, explain and adjust your plan.
  • You need an approach that can adapt when work, travel, health restrictions or daily responsibilities change.
Clear Professional Boundaries

Forge Handles Coaching. Your Clinician Handles Treatment.

The roles support different parts of your progress and should not be confused with one another.

Forge Coaching
  • Personalized fitness programming and exercise form review
  • Nutrition, habit and lifestyle coaching
  • Progress reviews, accountability and plan adjustments
Licensed Clinician
  • Medication eligibility, prescribing and dosage
  • Diagnosis, laboratory testing and medical monitoring
  • Side effects, symptoms and treatment decisions

Forge can follow documented restrictions or medical instructions you provide, but medication and clinical decisions remain with your healthcare provider.

You do not need a perfect starting point. You need a plan built for the starting point you have.

How Forge Coaching Works

Choose Your Plan. Start With a Real Coach.

You do not need to apply or complete a sales consultation. Choose the coaching level that fits you, complete your onboarding and begin working with your assigned coach. Your plan is built from your information—not pulled from a generic template.

Select Standard, Complete or Premium based on how often you want scheduled private coaching sessions.

More Than Workout Numbers

Your Coach Can See How You Are Moving.

Online coaching should not mean guessing alone. Your coach can review selected exercises live during scheduled video sessions or evaluate videos you submit through the app. That feedback can improve technique and help your coach make better programming decisions.

  • Live Form Checks Review selected movements during a scheduled private video session.
  • Submitted Video Review Record an exercise and send it through the app for coach feedback.
  • Technique and Plan Adjustments Your coach can change cues, exercises or progression when the plan needs refinement.

Find the Gaps Your Scale Cannot Show.

Scale weight does not tell you whether your training, nutrition, hydration, movement or recovery need more attention. The free ForgeScore assessment organizes those areas into an immediate educational support-needs summary. No email or consultation is required.

Educational use only. The assessment does not diagnose a condition, determine medication eligibility or replace guidance from a licensed healthcare provider.

Frequently Asked Questions

Clear Answers. One Simple Next Step.

Direct enrollment is available for all three coaching plans. Review the practical details below, choose your preferred level of support and start when you are ready. A consultation remains available, but it is optional.

Does Forge prescribe or manage GLP-1 medication?

No. Forge provides fitness, nutrition and habit coaching. We do not prescribe, sell or dispense GLP-1 medications, recommend dosage changes or manage medical treatment. Those decisions remain with your licensed healthcare provider.

Can I enroll without scheduling a consultation?

Yes. Choose Standard, Complete or Premium and enroll directly through the pricing section. A free consultation is available when you have questions or want help comparing plans, but it is not required.

Do I need a gym or previous training experience?

No. Your coach builds the program around your experience, current ability, available equipment, physical limitations and schedule. Programs can be designed for a commercial gym, a home gym or minimal equipment.

Are the workouts live, and how do form checks work?

Most workouts are completed independently using your personalized program. Your coach can review selected exercises live during scheduled video sessions or through videos you submit, then provide corrections and adjust the program when needed.

What is included with every coaching plan?

Every plan includes personalized strength and cardio programming, nutrition and habit coaching, unlimited in-app messaging, progress tracking, ongoing program adjustments, exercise demonstrations and live or submitted-video form review.

The main difference between plans is the number of scheduled 30-minute private coaching sessions each month.

Which coaching plan should I choose?

Standard includes one private session per month and fits more independent clients. Complete includes two sessions and provides more frequent feedback. Premium includes four sessions and is designed for weekly accountability and closer oversight.

You can enroll directly or use the optional consultation when you need help deciding.
