January 24, 2021
As a software developer manager, John Lyon-Smith wants to share an important concern with his team and the developer community at large: are you exercising enough? Passionate about fitness himself, John believes that developer work often leads to bad habits down the line, and even just a simple daily walk will do wonders for one's physical and mental health. This session explores John's own personal fitness hacks and his suggestions for adopting a health-first mindset.
