Is there an actor who represents the quintessential British hardman better than Jason Statham? Probably not. The 53-year-old actor has been a mainstay on the big screen since his breakthrough in Guy Ritchie’s Lock, Stock & Two Smoking Barrels and in the 23 years since that classic was released, Statham’s reputation as a go-to Hollywood tough guy has skyrocketed.
From the Fast and the Furious franchise to Crank and The Transporter to The Expendables, the one-time Team GB Commonwealth Games diver (No, seriously) has dominated the action film genre like a modern-day Arnie, and like his Austrian predecessor, The Stath has had to put some serious time and effort to get in such fantastic shape - even more impressive considering his age. Below is Statham’s six-day workout plan that can turn you into a Hollywood hardman…
