At JM Lifestyle, it’s not about following trends – it’s about putting people first. Founder Jacco Mulder, a qualified dietitian and personal trainer, opened his own gym at the end of 2024 with a clear mission: to help people build a healthier lifestyle that truly suits them. In close collaboration with Lifemaxx, the compact studio, located in a former office building, was completely outfitted with high-quality, space-saving equipment that perfectly supports JM Lifestyle’s vision.
“My passion is helping people lead a healthier lifestyle. I started this gym to make that possible. It has a homely feel and a low entry threshold, which allows people to train in a comfortable and welcoming environment.”
From office building to functional fitness studio
The layout of the space came with some challenges due to its original function as an office. But through close consultation with Lifemaxx, every square metre was optimally utilised. Jacco provided a floor plan with measurements and ideas, which were then developed and refined together. “The space used to be an office, so it had some awkward corners. Together with Amando, we designed the layout in a way that really brought out the best in the space.”
Multifunctional equipment for maximum impact
JM Lifestyle opted for smart, versatile equipment to make the most of the available space. Lifemaxx supplied a Crossmaxx® XL Rig with integrated Smith machine and storage, a Crossmaxx® XL Dual pulley, various cardio machines, dumbbells and barbells with storage racks, and additional functional training tools such as weight plates, slam balls, benches, kettlebells and challenge bags. “One of the biggest advantages is that the equipment is multifunctional, which helps save space. It’s ideal when you don’t have many square metres to work with, like I do.”
Why Lifemaxx?
For Jacco, choosing Lifemaxx was an easy decision. “The price-quality ratio is incredibly good. I also really appreciate how involved they were in helping design the layout of the gym.”
Even after the installation, the collaboration remained warm and personal. “Lifemaxx supported me from the start and still does. They’re always happy to help with planning and deliver very quickly. The communication is friendly and relaxed. My clients are also very happy with the experience of training with Lifemaxx equipment.”
And Jacco himself? “Every day, I’m even more satisfied with my decision to work with Lifemaxx.”
