Introducing Rivalists. Our name reflects our mission to empower hybrid athletes to compete against themselves to improve their overall health and performance.
At Rivalists.
We believe that everyone is an athlete in their own right. Whether you are a weekend warrior, a casual jogger, or just trying to get more active, we are here to support you in your journey towards better health and fitness.
While researching and speaking with leading performance health professionals over the years leading up to Rivalists, there was a consistent theme in their coaching philosophies: they encouraged their athletes to get 1% better each day. This approach wasn’t just motivational—it was grounded in structure. Many of these professionals emphasized the power of SMART goals: Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound objectives that drive clarity and progress.
But what stood out was how these goals weren’t only about hitting milestones—they were tools for building intentional habits and cultivating accountability. The mindset shifted from outcome obsession to process orientation: focusing on the small, consistent challenges that lead to long-term growth. This shift laid the foundation for Rivalists.
Our name embodies this spirit of healthy rivalry—with yourself. We believe true competition isn’t always about beating others; it’s about outgrowing yesterday’s limits. By setting meaningful goals, connecting with others on the same path, and committing to your daily 1%, you can unlock your full potential and live a healthier, more fulfilling life.
