No photoshop. No cherry-picking. These are the people who showed up and did the work.
"Came in barely squatting 135 lbs. Left 16 weeks later with a 265 lb squat and 18 lbs of fat gone. Marcus's programming is the most precise thing I've ever followed."
"I've tried four gyms over six years. Forge is the first place where the HIIT classes actually run at a pace that challenges me. Leila doesn't let you coast."
"Signed up as an injury-returning lifter. Tobias had me moving better in week 3 than I had before the injury. Six months later I deadlifted a lifetime PR."
