Give and Take By: Sabrina Blajos During my whole #Brinachallenge I have definitely learned a lot of things but the most important one has been the “give and take”. What I mean by this is making sure to understand when it’s okay to give in to temptations and when it’s not okay to take away from all the hard work and discipline you have been putting in to get to a certain goal. I bring this up because I know the holidays are right around the corner and we tend to think its okay to “give” a little too much and then before we know it we have “taken” away from all the hard work we have put in the past year.

It is not the presents. It is not the food. It is not about who has the best lighting display. It is about time. Time spent with family and friends, time enjoying one another’s company, time expressing our love and gratitude for one another, and time to recognize how truly blessed and lucky we are. As we get older we lose sight of how magical and special this time of year is. We become consumed with all these adult responsibilities and forget the true meaning of...Read more

My wife and I joined Double Edge 4 months ago and we are truly hooked for life. Even though we are older than most of the members, we have quickly made personal gains in our overall fitness. After each workout we discuss how well we competed against the younger members. The Double Edge experience starts with excellent customer service that you get from each of the employees. Every employee knows your name from the first day and they treat you like you are their only customer.
