DevLifts is the world's only developer-centric fitness company solely focused on helping developers live healthier lives. The company provides remote personal training products and services as well as in-person training and corporate seminars.DevLifts founder J.C. noticed his health deteriorating in the summer of 2015. The owner of a web shop in Jackson, MS, his life mainly consisted of sitting, eating, and being stressed. These compounded into poor sleep, low energy, aches and pains, and 50 pounds of weight gain over the previous four years.In the meantime, DevLifts co-founder Thad, a friend from high school, had become a personal trainer and was living in town. During the fall of 2015, Thad trained J.C. in the gym and in the kitchen, teaching him how to make healthy, sustainable changes to his life and more importantly, how to make them stick. In fact, when Thad left the country for a year of volunteering, J.C. was able to keep up his new habits without requiring Thad's supervision.On Thad's re-entry to the States, J.C. approached him with an idea — to partner together and give other developers what Thad gave J.C. in 2015. To create a community where developers can come together and learn more about training, nutrition, and themselves. To help individuals who are constantly forced into unhealthy environments understand that it doesn't have to be that way.
