# 725 - Martyn Ford Went From Anorexia to Building a Body Nobody Could Ignore

My buddy Martyn Ford hangs with me and we get into his insane journey from cricket player to battling an eating disorder, finding himself through training, and eventually building a career in movies. We talk about Arnold Schwarzenegger’s influence, the ridiculous Fast & Furious premiere Martyn basically threw for himself, the emergency surgery that nearly killed him, and the pressure he feels trying to break through as a leading actor. Plus, we talk about working together on The Machine, his latest Mortal Kombat 2 success and spending hours in hair and makeup just to have it mostly covered by a helmet.
