Episode 5: Coss Marte-Start Where You Are, Use What You Got, Do What You Can
Update: 2020-05-11
Description
Coss Marte, former inmate, developed CONBODY, a prison style fitness bootcamp that hires formerly incarcerated individuals to teach fitness classes. It’s the ultimate no-equipment, hardcore workout program using military-style bodyweight training techniques that he learned in prison. Coss was able to lose 70 pounds in six months with nothing but the walls and floor of his 9-by-6 prison cell.
In this episode Coss reveals his 'spiritual awakening'' while locked in solitary confinement just weeks before he was scheduled to be released (after an altercation with a prison guard), and being faced with additional time to his sentence. He explains how his real message is about prison reform and changing the stigma between young professionals and formerly incarcerated individuals.
