Shoutout to our incredible March Member of the Month, Elise McKinnon! 🎉

Give Elise a high-five when you see her around the gym! Your hard work and dedication inspire us all.

"What an honour to be 'Member of the Month' - especially before my boyfriend Quinn! I’ve always enjoyed weightlifting, but before joining Forge I hit a plateau and was starting to lose motivation in the gym. Since becoming a member, the atmosphere here has completely changed the way I approach working out, and I’ve discovered a new love for hybrid-style training. Forge’s unique layout makes it easy to move equipment around and build the kind of workout you want. More than anything, the community here has pushed me to work harder and test my physical limits. I also love seeing the wide range of ages and abilities in the gym because it makes the space feel welcoming, inspiring, and supportive for everyone!”

⭐️ Member Spotlight: Ian and Simone Galna! ⭐️

We're excited to celebrate Ian and Simone Galna as our Members of the Month! This power couple is a true representation of the Forge community, both dedicated to their own training and giving back to our members.

"What an honor to be recognized as members of the month!
When we first moved back to Victoria in 2023, Forge was a natural choice for a gym – close to home, lots of barbells, and a beautiful facility. Since then, we’ve moved a little further away but wouldn’t consider changing gyms!

Since joining, we’ve been more consistent in the gym than ever thanks to the wonderful community of strength-minded individuals who have encouraged us to start competing in powerlifting. Both of us have hit major PRs in all our lifts, feel stronger than ever, and feel like we’ve made great friends along the way.

Most gyms we’ve been to before made it feel like I had to give up our social life to set aside the time to train but the Forge community makes it so easy to come in, even if it ends up making our workouts a little too long due to chatting!

Thanks to the staff and members for making it an incredible couple of years – we look forward to continuing to grow alongside you all for many years to come!"

- Ian & Simone
