Michael Cole

Forge WOD is constantly varied functional strength and conditioning, relentlessly programmed to make you hard to break. Not random workouts, and not a watered-down template. Every session is programmed by Michael Cole and delivered through the Train Heroic app, with new programming every week. The whole team runs the same standard, and you can jump in today right where the cycle is — no waiting for a new block. It blends heavy strength, hard conditioning, skill, and grind — the work that builds a complete, durable athlete who's ready for anything. It scales to whatever equipment you've got and whatever level you're at. And when you join, you're not buying a PDF — you're on the leaderboard with everyone Forged on the same standard, nationwide. You see their work, they see yours, and that's what keeps you showing up. The program is the product. The standard is the standard. Show up and do the work.

FAQs

Can I start in the middle of a cycle?

Yes. New programming drops weekly and the team trains together — jump in today, log your first session, and you're on the board.

What level is it for?

Every level. Each workout scales up or down, so beginners and advanced athletes run the same session at their own level. Show up, scale smart, do the work.

Is this like CrossFit?

It's constantly varied functional strength and conditioning — heavy lifting, hard metcons, and skill work (WODs). If that's the style of training you love, you'll be right at home.

What equipment do I need?

A barbell, dumbbells or kettlebells, a pull-up bar, and a way to run or row cover most of it. Nearly every workout scales to minimal equipment.

How do I cancel?

No long-term contract. Cancel your subscription anytime through Train Heroic.
