Class Favored Practical Arts / Skillful Methods
Monk - Warlord - Bard/Skald - Fighter - Rogue - Ranger - Berserk/Barbarian
Monks Inner Peace
In spite of its arguably misidentified source, the Monk class is considered fully martial for purposes of these rules, it was in a true sense the original D&D martial artist and that D&D monk is in fact inspiration for many of these arts and the original practices, and arguably the martial power source itself.

Fighter - The First Martial Class
This is the class which arguably in the earliest version of D&D - was the sole representative of Martial I highly recommend they be given a decent number of trained skills as a factor of rebalancing the non-combat arena of your game. (Automatic Athletics plus 4 others would be comparable to the Wizards) and perhaps since the idea is to balance issues any character with fewer skills pre-racial should get 4 trained plus 1 defined by class.

Barbarian/Berserk
Berserk is a Fighting method and Barbarian is a Culture / Background - yes D&D always gets this wrong and usually in multiple ways.
