The Christmas season is in full swing with shopping, decorations and even a little bit of snow!  To celebrate the holiday spirit Double Edge will be having our very own Christmas party on 12/18 at 6:30pm for all of our members and their families!  As most things that happen in the gym there will be a theme to our Christmas party, ugly sweater.  This means pull out your most “spirited” sweatshirt or the one that hasn’t seen the light of day in over a decade or two and wear it with pride! We will be providing dinner from Men Wielding Fire and beer from Brewers Cabinet along with a festive cocktail that will warm even the coldest of hearts! Along with the main course we are asking members to bring some of their favorite Christmas side dishes or desserts.  The Double Edge staff will be tasting each one of these...Read more

Nine months ago I emailed Double Edge Fitness, my body was hurting and I was frustrated where I was at and I wanted to see what Double Edge was all about. I didn’t think that they would get back to me, but within an hour I got a response from someone named Kyle. He said that I should come in and meet with him. I thought, “Great what have I gotten myself into this time.” I met with Kyle and told him my story, half sobbing in his office, and I told him some of my goals. Kyle wasn’t deterred by that weepy sad girl that was sitting before him. He said that he would train me, so we set up some appointments and away we went.

The Welded Open starts this Thursday and if you haven’t signed up don’t miss your chance in being part of the worlds largest online competition by visiting www.crossfitgames.com.  As most of you have probably heard we will be hosting the Open on Friday nights at 6pm and Saturday at 10am.  If you are unable to make these times you can always complete the workout during a class with a coach or friend. To help make the open an even better event we will be keeping track of everyone’s score using an online tournament software called A Box Above.   By using this software it will make it easier to track the scores of just the members in our gym without having to scroll through thousands of scores on the Welded Games main page.   This will also be a beta test for Double Edge so that we can get all...Read more
