Founded in 2016,  JC a software engineer transformed himself while working a 12-hour a day IT job. He created and shared a training methodology through his free book “Get Shredded” to prove that anyone can get fit with the knowledge of Quantified Nutrition. Now that has spawned into a fitness company that has a vision of making millions of people across the world fit and to create meaningful career opportunities in the fitness industry.

We discuss:

  • Building Fittr’s highly engaged community
  • Growing the user base & finding the missing pieces in achieving fitness goals
  • Choosing Sequoia’s Surge program over Y-Combinator

Please do share the episode, and do spread the word!

Hope you and the family are well.
