The work
The training at Field & Forge Farm is simply called The Work.
Not because it’s extreme or performative — but because it’s consistent, intentional, and built to support the body over time.
In-person training will focus on strength, mobility, and long-term resilience in small group and individualized settings. They won’t be classes or sessions designed to fit a specific fitness trend, but training that supports individuals personally, in the body they live in.
The Work is individually structured strength training, rooted in long-term health — not short-term output.
It is built on progressive resistance, intentional movements, mobility work, and nervous system regulation. With focus on fundamental movement patterns: squatting, hinging, pushing, pulling, carrying, rotating. We build strength slowly, with intention, and without chaos.
There are no random workouts.
No exhaustion as proof of effort.
Instead, sessions are programmed in blocks.
Each block has a purpose.
Each phase builds on the last.
And strength is developed through repetition and progression.
What the work is
Each session is guided, personal, and structured. Each individual will work at their own pace, toward their own goals, through their individually designed program.
Each individual will begin with an intentional warm-up:
Joint mobility
Movement of underused muscle groups
Bringing the nervous system into regulation
From there, we train.
You will move through selected exercises and strength patterns that support your overall goals and concerns:
Balance
Strength and muscle growth
Weight loss
Cardiovascular endurance
Joint integrity
Metabolic resilience
Loads are appropriate. Rest is intentional. Form matters.
Each training session will be followed by a short outdoor walk around the property — time to get sunlight, fresh air, support nervous system regulation, cool down naturally, and connect with others. This isn’t about adding more — it’s about letting the work settle and creating space for conversation and community.
This is part of the training — not an afterthought.
What a session looks like
What’s included with a membership
Memberships at Field & Forge is not access to a gym. It is access to a rhythm.
The Work is the anchor — but it does not stand alone.
All memberships include:
Small group, in-person training with individualized attention.
A six-month commitment designed to support consistency and meaningful change.
Monthly payment structure for sustainability.
Time outdoors after training to regulate, decompress, and connect.
One Saturday, monthly all-member training session (Field Day) — shared movement with scalable options
Quarterly Seasonal Gatherings centered around a shared meal and community - think a nourishing meal made from scratch, outside during sunset, near a fire, under string lights, and great company.
Access to farm fresh eggs and seasonal produce as available.
Opportunities to source thoughtfully selected foods from local farmers - raw milk, fresh milled flour, beef, pork, etc.
Access to The Larder — a private, members-only space where I share recipes, meals, and guidance to support everyday nourishment beyond the gym.
The Work is not group fitness.
It is not private training in isolation either.
It sits in between.
You train at a consistent time, with a small group rhythm — but your programming, progressions, and modifications are individualized. You are coached directly. Your capacity, injuries/limitations, stress load, and season of life are considered.
This keeps cost accessible while preserving personal care.
More sessions do not mean more intensity.
They mean more exposure to practice — which leads to adaptation.
What’s makes it different
The Work builds:
Strength that is usable in daily life
Nervous system resilience
Physical capacity without burnout
Stability through stressful seasons
Confidence in your body again
It restores rhythm.
And rhythm is what most people are missing.
What it builds (beyond muscle)
Training does not exist separate from nourishment here.
Members learn how to:
Cook from scratch
Eat through different seasons
Support gut health
Reduce toxic load
Think long-term about food sourcing
Because health and muscle without nourishment is unstable. And nourishment without strength lacks structure.
This is a full-spectrum foundation.
how it connects to the farm
The Work is strength training done correctly, consistently, and calmly — in a way that supports the nervous system, connection with the land and others, and the long-term.
It is not extreme.
It is not trendy.
It is not loud.
It is practice.
