FUNCTIONAL FITNESS
introducing our newest offering
The Forged Brotherhood
Recent surveys show that about 15% of men say they don’t have any close friends at all—a sharp increase from previous years. Experts are calling this trend a “male friendship recession,” as many men are finding it harder to maintain strong social connections compared to past generations. Friendships that once thrived through shared activities or regular meetups seem to be dwindling, leaving many feeling isolated. In fact, only 27% of men today report having six or more close friends, a significant drop from previous decades.
Enter The Forged Brotherhood by Functional Fitness.
While many social gatherings revolve around alcohol and sedentary activities, our goal is to provide an outlet for movement, connection & personal growth.
What is the Forged Brotherhood?
Male friendships are often forged through shared experiences and time spent together.
It’s important for us to engage in activities with other men—whether it’s playing a sport, visiting a gun range, taking up martial arts, or trying out a survival school. The goal is to create healthier men with plenty of opportunities to connect with local men who have similar interests. By participating in an environment of friendly competition—we naturally build bonds that can grow into genuine friendships.
