As most of you know by now we have become and official retailer of Xendurance supplements.   The reason that we made the switch 3 months ago was the scientific studies and their amazing results in the reduction of lactic acid and the constant dedication of their best representative Spencer who has been to Double Edge more than once explaining the ins and outs of their products. If you haven’t had the opportunity to either try Xendurance or talk to Spencer you are in luck!  Tomorrow starting off in the early morning and going all the way until the last class Spencer will have a table set up in the mobility area giving away samples of Xendurance products.  Don’t miss out on this opportunity to try the best supplements on the market and to get all of your questions answered by the most knowledgeable rep in the industry!       GROUP...Read more

By: Arthur Anderson   What is Paleo?  Or for that matter what is Primal? Paleo is a diet that mimics our Paleolithic ancestors and Primal is a lifestyle that mimics our Paleolithic ancestors. In addition to eating good food our Paleolithic ancestors enjoyed an active and enriching life, that didn’t include many of the stresses that we have today.  The Primal Lifestyle is a way of modeling our diet, exercise and lifestyle behaviors after our primal ancestors while adapting them to the realities of our modern lifestyles.
