Download or read book ConBody written by Coss Marte and published by St. Martin's Griffin. This book was released on 2018-03-20 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “When Coss Marte went to prison 10 years ago, he was faced with not one, but two big challenges: lose weight and discover a legitimate career upon release. Luckily for him, overcoming the first obstacle helped him find the answer to the other.”—NPR As a teenager, Coss Marte was flying high on New York’s Lower East Side as a drug dealer, making money hand over fist. But after watching his life and those of his loved ones fall apart, he realized things had to change. That change occurred when he was sentenced to prison. Within the space of his own cell and without workout equipment, Coss took the initiative to improve his circumstances and created ConBody, a bodyweight-only approach to fitness. This plan helped him drop 70 pounds from his dangerously obese frame, reversing a negative health prognosis of surviving the next five years. Once he saw that his workout plan was not only effective, but accessible, he knew he’d found a pathway to health and ultimately to a new life—and designed a regimen to train his fellow inmates. When he left prison, he returned to the Lower East Side, but not to his criminal career. Instead he worked out in his old hangouts and gained a small following that turned into an acclaimed business, winning entrepreneurial awards and the support of Shark Tank’s Barbara Corcoran. Coss’s method works. These exercises are for anyone, anywhere. All you need is yourself and the space of a jail cell to get started. It’s perfect for busy lifestyles on the go and can be done in hotel rooms, small apartments, and in your backyard. With fun, engaging exercises, ConBody: The Revolutionary Bodyweight Boot Camp will help give you the extraordinary hope and resilience to improve your health and life.

Home Fitness entails exactly what it implies: executing your personal fitness routine while at home using a variety of different techniques. Home fitness has been in our lives for decades – and it’s taken on a new role since the Covid-19 pandemic closed gyms around the world. Whether it’s a yoga class on Zoom or panic-buying a Peloton, many of us are trying to find ways to exercise effectively within four walls. Whether you are looking to improve your cardiovascular system, lose weight, gain lean muscle mass, or just stay active, in-home training has a place in your life. And the benefits of staying fit are no secret: Improvements in cardiovascular and respiratory health, better regulation of blood sugar, the potential to reduce or eliminate prescription medications (such as for diabetes or blood pressure), weight loss, reduction in cancer risk, and improved musculoskeletal strength are some of the better-known. But when you’re working out at home, you’re responsible for the whole plan: What exercises should you do? How many reps of each? How often should you rest? Are you feeling a cardio workout? An upper-body workout? Or do you want to fit in a total body workout instead? For many of us, answering all these questions is an added stress we’d rather avoid right now. And the good news is that’s something you can avoid—without skipping your workout. We are about to show you an immaculate at-home workout program that take the guesswork out for you and will give you the whole exercise plan.
