What a night! 💙🏆

Last night, Allan & Soph celebrated a pretty special milestone at the 2026 Business NSW Riverina Murray Awards.

FORGED was incredibly proud to be named a finalist in two business categories, with Sophie also named a finalist for Outstanding Young Business Leader.

And to top off an amazing night, FORGED came away as the WINNER of the Outstanding Visitor & 24-Hour Economy Collaboration Award! 🏆

Over the past 18 months, FORGED has grown from strength to strength. From one space to two, new equipment, new services and plenty more happening behind the scenes, it’s been a massive journey so far.

But none of it would be possible without the people who have backed us along the way.

To every single member who walks through our doors, everyone who has supported us, recommended us, shared a post, sent a message, helped us out or simply wanted to see FORGED succeed, thank you. 💙

We’re incredibly proud of how far FORGED has come, and even more excited about where we’re heading.

Two spaces. One community. And we’re only getting started. 💙

BIG UPDATES AT THE FACTORY!

These 2 projects have been ideas rolling around in our heads for a couple of months now, and they’re coming to life starting today! 😯

With most of the outdoor equipment now here, we’ll be setting our outdoor gym space up so you can lift in the sun and get some fresh air!

… and for the Mezzanine space - we’ve decided to create a recreation space where members can shoot some pool, play some foosball or table hockey and chill with their protein shakes 😁 we feel this is a bigger value add than anything else we could have done up here for our members (now you don’t have to step foot in a nasty pub to play some pool!)

Gym equipment is rolling in today and the recreation space will take shape next week. Exciting times ahead and we’re keen to watch these spaces grow coming into the warmer months!

… There’s a few more toys headed for inside too. I’m particularly excited for the Precor Icarian Shoulder Press, and the upgraded adductor and upgraded abductor (Hoist pieces, very interesting units! Demo videos will happen next week when they arrive).

Lifting straps, belts, sleeves, wraps - a good topic!

This is an area we’ve got good knowledge in. These are items that have their place but aren’t actually essential for lifters.

If you’re competing or perhaps nursing an injury, or working out with enough intensity (and honestly we don’t see that often enough) then they have their place.

And we only believe in quality items. Ones where you go online to buy them from niche suppliers.

Don’t buy the generic crap items around town, these are items that you need to fork out decent money on. But they’ll last you for many years. You get what you pay for, so don’t cheap out and buy yours from your local sports shop (the local sports shop doesn’t cater for anyone who takes lifting seriously).

And yes we’ve thought about bringing this stock in - but we’d sell 1x belt a year, so it’s not viable for us in this small market to stock them unfortunately.

We also don’t want to sell you garbage. We could supply something that’s crap to our members and has good margin in it for us, but that’s not what we’re about.

Spring is here!

A wonderful time of year!

This is the time and space where the typical “big box”, big-corporate or franchise model comes out with their irresistible Springtime “get fit” offer, 4 weeks free and no joining fee mega deal… never to be repeated (it’s repeated non-stop during the year).

Lock in (lock you down) on a 12 month contract.

It’s not about that. Don’t be one of these that sits on the couch and waits for a “deal” to join a gym. Your wellbeing is worth more than a few bucks saved a week.

If you value variety and quality of equipment, a gym that’s not filled to the brim with juniors/school kids from 3:30pm to 6:00pm, and appreciate support and proper guidance from owners that are here for you when you need it, we recommend you have a tour of one of our FORGED spaces.

Your time is precious. You get in, get the work done and get out. Our gyms might be for you, or they might not, but they’re worth a look.

Just don’t base your decision on a crappy seasonal offer. Don’t cheap out, put a value on your health and fitness and commit to improving yourself.

We’re here when you’re ready. And our terms are as transparent and as simple as you’ll find, we’re confident in that.

We’ve just gone live with our 10-minute-check in initiative for our members!

A great opportunity to pin Allan down for 10 minutes and get any answers or help you need out of him.

Sometimes it feels awkward asking for help, and we hear it all the time that people don’t like to inconvenience us, or they just don’t want to ask a silly question.

You’re never inconveniencing us, and there’s no such thing as a silly question! Our booking link is designed so it locks in a time for you, and allows Allan to set that time aside for you distraction-free.

… and as a footnote…
as much as we love doing equipment demo’s and providing as much value across the socials as possible, we aren’t in the business of providing free assistance and guidance to these who don’t train with us, and that’s why we’re keeping this one in-house.

We’ll keep focusing on the people that support us, and not the other gyms down the road.

NEW AT FORGED 💙
10-MINUTE CHECK-INS WITH ALLAN

Sometimes you’ve got a question at the gym, but you’re not quite sure whether it’s worth asking.

▪️Maybe you want someone to show you an exercise.
▪️Maybe there’s a piece of equipment you’ve never used.
▪️Maybe you’re wondering if you’re training enough, doing the right things, or what you should actually be focusing on to reach your goals.

Or maybe you just need 10 minutes of advice to point you in the right direction.

That’s what these check-ins are for.
No awkwardness. No feeling like you’re asking a stupid question.

Just 10 minutes set aside for you to ask, learn and get a bit of help with whatever you need.

📍 FORGED Studio
Tuesdays + Thursdays
4:00pm to 6:00pm

📍 FORGED Factory
Wednesdays
4:00pm to 6:30pm

These check-ins are completely FREE for FORGED members, and Fitness Passport members are welcome too.

Bookings are required, so Allan can have that 10 minutes specifically set aside for you.

👉 Book using the link on this post or through the link in our bio or from the posters in the gyms.

We’ve never wanted FORGED to be the kind of gym where you feel like you need to know everything before you walk through the door.

You’re allowed to ask.
You’re allowed to learn.
You’re allowed to be new at something.

And if we can help you become a little more confident, train a little better or get a little closer to your goals, we’re here for it. 💙

Book your 10-minute check-in and come ask away.

You’re not losing the race.

You’re just running at your own pace.

Some weeks you’ll feel strong. Some weeks you’ll feel like you’ve gone backwards. Some days, simply showing up is the win.

Stop measuring your progress against everyone else’s.

Just keep showing up and doing what you can. Progress doesn’t have to look like anyone else’s to still be progress. 💙

It’s Monday! And you said you’d join today.

When the gyms look this good what are you waiting for?

Macktronix have already got us covered, setting up the cameras across both FORGED spaces 👀📹

… But with our new outdoor gym yard coming soon, we’re thinking their Dual-Camera Off-Grid Solar CCTV Solution might be the perfect addition to keep an eye on things out there too 😂

Although judging by this footage, we’re not sure if it’ll be protecting the yard… or just catching Allan mid-workout with a cold drink in hand. 🍻💪

Macktronix | Electronic Problem Solvers consider this our official entry 👀 We think we’ve found the perfect spot for it!
