By: Trent Soares As a community filled with fitness driven individuals here at Double Edge we have many traits in common, one of them being competitive. Healthy competition can help with motivation; it can give us that extra effort to perform at a higher level than we may have done otherwise alone.

We think negatively to ourselves or might even comment something negative about our own bodies. It’s important to think: Would you talk to a friend the way...Read more
