So, uh, how did Charlize get such amazing-ahem, ripped-back muscles? Apparently she told Glamour magazine that she trained for her role as a spy in Atomic Blonde by working out at director David Leitch's 87Eleven. She did a mix of martial arts and boxing training, and said it was definitely not easy. "It was tough. You want to be in your best fighting shape, and it's hard," Charlize said.
The workouts were long-and brutal. We worked about four to five hours a day-eight amazing trainers who killed me every single day, and I am very grateful to them," Charlize told the magazine. "I learned several skills from a variety of martial arts disciplines, along with boxing maneuvers and wrestling throws.
Let's take a look back at the most scandalous moments in Oscars history:
Charlize told Harper's Bazaar she's always trying to stay in shape-even when she's not training for a role. Im always calculating my activity. If I havent been moving a lot, I cant eat a lot. Or maybe its a cheat day. But Im honest with myself.
She also told the magazine she favors a plant-based, raw foods diet, and that she's kind of obsessed with Pilates these days. Ive fallen in love with Pilates. Its totally changed my body.
Well, it definitely shows!
