plans & Scope
Yes! Forge Online Personal Training is a comprehensive personal fitness solution with a specialization in exercise program design. We develop workout plans for individuals of all levels for the gym or at home. We use mobile app technology to deliver workout plans right to your device so you can workout literally anywhere. We also communicate with our clients via video chat for face-to-face coaching and leverage unlimited messaging right in the Forge mobile app interface. All plans are built based on your current condition and goal with a progressive and effective design. We take the guess work out of exercise and meal planning. For a full list of our services visit our Home Page or check out our 90 Day Habit Transformation.
Note: The 90 Day Habit Transformation program includes the Plus+ nutrition plan!
Yes! Each meal plan is written by a Registered Dietitian (License Number 86147642). Our level of professional expertise is yet another aspect of Forge that separates us from most online fitness and nutrition companies.
Our Registered Dietitian utilizes an advanced third-party dietetics software program to which we hold a license and we compile a meal recommendation plan for you based on your height, weight, age, gender, activity level and food preferences.
Unless otherwise stated: This is not a clinical or medically supervised meal planning service intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease or illness.
Yes, the ability to speak to your trainer via video chat sets Forge apart from all other online fitness programs. the “Basic” and “Plus+” plans are ideal for connecting with your personal trainer to get answers to questions or enjoy some coaching and encouragement. If you feel having a connection to a personal trainer would benefit you, we recommend the “Basic“ or “Plus+” plans. The “Starter” plan is perfect for people who need a plan to get our of a rut or get some fresh ideas on food preparation and management and don’t need a coach.
Yes. We are able to deliver menu plans that follow the guidelines of Pantothenic diets, Ketogenic, other fad diets or plans. We do not make any claims or endorsement that a Paleo or Keto diet is better than or preferable to a balanced or holistic approach. We build plans based on our clients preferences and this includes specialized programs such as Paleo, Keto and even Vegan. Please keep in mind, we have a balanced approach at Forge and do not endorse excessive calorie restriction or fad diets popularized by media to sell you products. However, we embrace the wide range of body types, eating preferences and physiological responses of our clients and do our best to be flexible within reason and provide a safe guideline.
Yes, and as a general rule, we strongly recommend individuals with diagnosed food allergies or intolerance seek a medically supervised program or work directly with a Registered Dietitian.
While we have a licensed RD on staff, our programs are intended for generally healthy adults who’s physicians have not restricted their food or exercise lifestyles.
Our RD will be happy to assess your situation and make recommendations.
Aside from the Forge Registered Dietitan, most of our personal trainers are Certified Fitness Nutrition Coach and Fitness Nutrition Specialist. We will educate clients on best practices and assist in the development of meal plan options based on credentials held from the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM-FNS) and the National Exercise Sports Trainer Association (NESTA-FNC) related to nutrition. The real power of how Forge works with clients on nutrition is with education, positive accountability directly through the Forge app.
Forge personal trainers do not claim to possess dietary degrees, registered or otherwise, and will certainly not provide medically based nutritional advice unless otherwise stated.
One thing that separates Forge from many online fitness and nutrition coaching companies is our in-house Registered Dietitian, who is also a certified Personal Trainer.
To be clear, any personal trainer that claims to be able to prescribe a detailed, clinically structured nutrition program as part of their services is working outside the personal trainer scope of practice. Unless of course, they are registered with the Commission on Dietetic Registration (CDR) and are a Registered Dietitian (RD), which requirements are met by Forge.
Many states do not require a license or higher education to call oneself a “nutritionist” and this allows trainers to market diet and meal planning. This is especially true in the “weight loss” and “figure competition/bodybuilding” markets. Forge will only provide basic nutrition education and write menu suggestions and opinions about food choices, caloric intake, meal timing, shopping lists and preparation. Forge trainers do not claim to possess dietary degrees, registered or otherwise, and will certainly not provide medically based nutritional advice. We will simply educate clients on best practices and assist in the development of meal plan options based on credentials held from the National Academy of Sports Medicine (NASM-FNS) and the National Exercise Sports Trainer Association (NESTA-FNC) related to nutrition.
The Food Preference Questionnaire should be filled out ONLY after you have selected and purchased a plan. If you have already purchased your plan but overlooked the Food Preference Questionnaire on the landing page after you paid you can have a link sent by requesting it from: info@forgept.com
