Real coaching
for real life.
Life doesn't stop because you're trying to get healthier — and your coaching shouldn't expect it to. Dave Vaughan builds your workouts, nutrition, accountability, and support around your schedule, your goals, and the reality of everyday life, so you can stay consistent no matter what life throws at you.
Most fitness plans
fail the moment life gets busy.
Dave's coaching is designed to survive the real world — because the real world is where you actually live.
Built around your life.
Your schedule, your equipment, your energy, your injuries. The plan is shaped by what's actually true for you this week — not a generic template.
Adapts when life changes.
Travel week, new baby, back tweak, deadline season. Dave adjusts the plan so you keep moving forward instead of starting over.
A real human in your corner.
Weekly check-ins with Dave. Form reviews when you need them. Support between sessions. Technology helps you reach him — it doesn't replace him.
Consistency, not intensity.
The plan you can keep doing is the plan that works. FTG is built for the long game — for people with careers, families, and full lives.
When your week goes sideways,
your coaching bends with it.
Hotel-room workout, no equipment, 25 minutes.
Shorter sessions, sleep-aware nutrition, zero guilt.
Plan pivots to what's safe today, keeps your streak alive.
Fewer sessions, heavier support, protect what matters.
Maintenance mode — hold the line, don't start over in January.
Plan pushes harder to match the energy you brought.
Coaching is a relationship,
not a subscription.
"I built Forget The Gym for the people I've coached for 25 years — the ones with jobs, kids, injuries, and lives that don't sit still. The plans that worked in the studio worked because I could adjust them in real time. That's what this is."
"Your plan should change when your life changes. That's the whole point. That's the difference between coaching and content."

closer than ever.
