Martyn began exercising at the age of 11 as he was always interested in fitness training. With a dream of representing the English national team one day, Martyn chose to play cricket but left it due to an injury when he was 19 years old.

It took him almost a year to recover and it was too late for him to get back in the field. After he fell into a deep depression rebuilding his body and gaining control over it gave him a sense of achievement.

His hard work paid up and he not only became a celebrity in the field of weight training but also received the opportunity to work in movies and operate three businesses under his name.  ‘Kingsman: The Golden Circle’ (2017), ‘Redcon-1’ (2018), ‘Accident Man’ (2018), ‘Robin Hood the Rebellion’, ‘Kill Ben Lyk’ and ‘Final Score’ are some of his globally watched movies.
