Hunky British actor Idris Elba cranks up the heat as he covers the December Issue of Men’s Health Magazine. In his feature interview, the 43-year old father of two spoke to the magazine about his fitness routine and why he loves working out so much.
According to the Luther star, being fit makes him more focused and patient. ”When I’m fit, I’m more focused,” he stated. “I have greater patience and my temper is more stable, so I’m better in almost all my relationships. I’m more vigilant about the s— I put up with. I see clearer. When I’m out of shape, I’m emotionally lazy.”
Idris, who was recently called ‘too street’ to play James Bond, revealed that he loves kickboxing and would choose it over running a marathon anytime.
According to him, kickboxing requires cores strength and his ultimate goal is to be fight-ready. “If I step into the ring, could I go toe-to-toe for five rounds? That’s what I strive for. That’s what I consider fit. I want to know that if I’m being wrestled to the ground, I’ve got the strength to fight a man off.” he said
Idris believes spontaneity is part of what makes him a real man, and he recently showed off his musical side in VVIP’s Selfie remix featuring Phyno, as well as D’banj’s Confidential.
