Starting this week we are introducing our Master’s class.  No this does not mean we are pulling out our 3 irons and practicing to make it to the next tour.  This class is specifically designed for any 40-60+ individuals who are looking for a change from the normal class structure.  In this class we will still have a designed workout and strength portion like a normal group class but we will be spending more time on mobility before and after to help with any restrictions. The master’s class will be taught by our “senior” trainer Arthur Anderson every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 8:30am.   If you are interested in joining this class you can contact [email protected] or just come and show up!  We look forward to growing this class and invite anyone who is interested to give it a try!   GROUP CLASS WORKOUT   Warm Up: 3 Rounds...Read more

Before anyone jumps to any conclusions with the title, Double Edge is not going anywhere!  This blog is dedicated to our member Al Castaldo who is leaving after being a member at Double Edge for a year now.  Now you may be asking who is Al?  Well, Al is the guy in the video on our homepage who tells his story about coming from a normal gym to a Welded gym.  If you haven’t yet seen the video CLICK HERE to watch the short flick. Along with being the face of a video, Al also shared his experiences of Welded through a blog series that Double Edge shared through our website.  The stories that he wrote were similar to most of our experiences when first entering a Welded gym wondering what we had gotten ourselves into. His journey with himself and with Double Edge through the past year has been...Read more
