Our Story
U-Forged: Built for Results. Backed by Purpose.
U-Forged isn’t just about lifting or chasing a dream body — it’s where real strength is built, from the inside out. In the gym, in your mindset, and in how you show up every day.
Our Mission
At U-Forged, we help busy professionals and beginners
lose fat, build strength, and transform their lifestyle through structured, proven training.
Our programs combine science-backed methods, personalized coaching, and lifestyle accountability —so you never fall off track again.
How It Started
After years of chasing progress, tracking my food daily, and learning through experience,
I built a training system that actually works — one rooted in discipline, mobility, and performance.
With over 9 years of training experience, multiple certifications, and a no-BS coaching style,
I now help others apply that same structure to their lives — and transform for good.
Meet Your Coach
I’m Tony — certified personal trainer, lifelong athlete, and founder of U-Forged.
I wasn’t always confident. I played sports growing up, but when I decided I wanted to change my body, I had no clue where to start. I made every mistake in the book and wished I had someone to guide me.
Fitness changed my life. I lost the weight, built muscle, and found purpose through discipline and structure. That led me to pursue a degree in Kinesiology and get certified in NASM-CPT and Corrective Exercise.
I spent years in commercial gyms, but I felt limited — like clients were treated more like numbers than people. That’s why I started U-Forged: to give others the structure and support I never had.
Now, I coach with a blend of biomechanics, habit-building, and performance — so you can train smart and get results that last.
