Personal Trainer

Ed Skrein is a fitness buddy, who was a competitive swimmer before. To prepare him for the role of Frank Martin in The Transporter: Refueled (2015), he still had to work really hard. Though, he was already physically fit and in shape. But, the movie had lot of fighting scenes, which needed him to do the extra work.

Since Skrein had no martial arts experience before, he learned skills such as Krav Maga (Israeli combat skills), Kali (Filipino martial arts), English boxing and other combat skills. You can learn more about him and his fitness at Healthy Celeb.
