#74 It Took Prison to Get Him Healthy - Coss Marte, ConBody

He was making over $2 Million a year when he was 19, but it all came crashing down when Coss Marte's drug network got busted. He went into prison in not-so-great physical shape and was told to either shape up or he was going to ship out. His first attempts at getting into shape failed but then he hit his ah-ha moment, went out in the yard and ran a few laps - and he had a new addiction. It evolved into a program utilizing limited equipment and space and ConBody was born. He lost 70 pounds in the first six months and when his sentence was served, he decided to become an entrepreneur on the right side of the law. His bootcamp approach to health and fitness is run by professionals who also are ex-felons and he gives back to society in other ways as well.
