ROBERT “COZMO” CONSULMAGNO; US Marines, PTSD & Bipolar (Advocate/Spokesperson), World ranked Jiu Jitsu champ, 4X World Record Holder Ab-Wheel roll outs, Boxer, Exercise & Endorphins CONTACT INFO: phone: 215-960-1128 Email: [email protected] Robert Consulmagno was born in Jersey City, NJ and endured a violent, disruptive childhood, with a father(suicide) and two stepfathers. To leave that world, he enlisted in the Marines and was honorably discharged (with commendation) after five years, but diagnosed with PTSD and Bipolar disorder which classified him as permanently disabled. He travelled the country searching, and discovered Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in Florida and in time became a world ranked Jiu Jitsu champion and advocate for PTSD and bipolar. Exercise, spirit, and dedication works. Four times, he has also set world records in Ab-Wheel roll outs (try it. Very hard to do). He also boxes today, which in part may come from his grandfather, Michael Consulmagno (aka Michael Taylor) who knocked out Max Schmeling who knocked out Joe Louis. His mission in life is to stay alive and live a long life and to be a spokesperson for mental health and build that legacy. COZMO: A sensitive, eloquent, passionate, yet quintessentially really tough, engaging and caring guy with a lot of baggage.
