Training built
around your
actual life.
Forged by LD is remote coaching for people who want fitness to become a real part of their lifestyle — a plan built around your routine, real feedback, and a coach who's paying attention, not a generic app template.
Four stages, one coach the whole way through.
No handoffs, no auto-generated plans. Every stage is run by LD directly.
Assess
A start-point call covering training history, schedule, equipment access, and what's actually gotten in the way before.
Program
A plan built for your week, not a template — adjusted around travel, sleep, and whatever else life brings.
Coach
Weekly check-ins, form feedback on lifts you submit, and direct messaging when something needs to change now.
Progress
Tracked numbers, not vibes — load, reps, and how you're recovering — reviewed together every month.

Forged by LD exists for one reason: most online coaching is a PDF and a Slack channel. This isn't that.
Every plan is written and adjusted by LD personally — not pulled from a template library. You get programming that reflects your actual training history, equipment, and schedule, and a coach who reviews your progress every week instead of leaving you to figure it out alone.
If you want structure, accountability, and someone in your corner who actually looks at your numbers — this is built for that.
