We were lucky to catch up with Marcellis Burrell recently and have shared our conversation below.
Marcellis, thanks for taking the time to share your stories with us today. Let’s start with the story of your mission. What should we know?
My Wife Was Diagnosed With Colon Cancer At A Young Age With No Family History Of It And Was In Great Shape.Doctors Was Able to Catch It Early and That Started A mission of getting into shape and Wanting to be Strong enough to fight anything health related that come Our way

Great, appreciate you sharing that with us. Before we ask you to share more of your insights, can you take a moment to introduce yourself and how you got to where you are today to our readers?
The Main Thing That Sets The Wurk House Apartt Is That We Are Regular People That Decided To Take Our Health More Seriously. I Never Played sports As A Kid ,No Military Background. Just A normal person with a family and busy lifestyle that refused to take my health for granted.
Let’s talk about resilience next – do you have a story you can share with us?
I started off out of shape 185lbs 25% body and wurked hard to get down to 166lbs 11% body fat then build back up to 185lbs 11% body fat.

We’d love to hear the story of how you turned a side-hustle into a something much bigger.
I was a Rap Artist And After My Wife was Diagnosed With Colon Cancer I Build a Gym In My Basement. Had No Ideal was I was Doing ,Only People That I knew That Wurked Out Was People That Went To Jail.After Getting Crazy Wurkout Excerises, I Decided To Go School For Personal Training, Not To Be A Trainer But to Get The Correct Knowledge. Once people found out what I was doing a close family member asked for help and I help them lose 100lbs and I haven’t been back to the studio since. That was 2016 lol.
