Working out for the body of a god? What about the body of a convict? Ep. 23

Are you working out for the body of a god? What about the body of a
convict? Meet Coss Marte, our guest this week. After being arrested
at 19 for running a multimillion dollar drug trade in New York
City, Coss was sent to prison. There, doctors told him that his
health problems and weight could kill him within a few years. After
dropping 70 pounds in six months, and helping train other convicts
to make dramatic changes, Coss also experienced a religious revival
in a moment of desperation. Now Coss is the head of ConBody: a gym
that offers prison-style bootcamp classes taught by formerly
incarcerated trainers. We’ll be talking with Coss about how ConBody
was developed, how his faith helped him while incarcerated and his
prison reform activism. After, we’ve got consolations and
desolations, where we tell you where we did or didn’t find God this
week. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit
