Despite His Fitness Crusade to Save F45 Ending Last Week, $400 Million Worth Mark Wahlberg Still Grinding at 4 AM to Flaunt His Sculpted Abs

Actor and bodybuilding enthusiast Mark Wahlberg recently became the Cheif Brand Officer of F45. After going into a downward spiral resulting in co-founder Adam Gilchrist stepping down and losing 45% of its onsite staff, Wahlberg stepped in to save the dying company. The $400 million net worth Hollywood star had already saved the brand once when he invested in it in 2019. However, this time the 51-year-old has taken a more hands-on approach.

Last week, Wahlberg completed a special seven-day training program primed to get more people into the F45 style of training. During Wahlberg Week, the actor became a personal trainer for anyone who signed up. However, despite a grueling week of training, Wahlberg is back to his 4 am gym routine. 

Mark Wahlberg starts his day with a workout

In his latest Instagram video, The Uncharted star revealed he isn’t taking a break from the 4 am club. In the video he posted on May 2, Mark Wahlberg did the advanced core exercise, the v-up. However, the fitness freak made the movement even more difficult by adding weight. The 51-year-old held a 2.5 lb weight plate while doing the v-ups.

“4 am club… Time to go to work,” the actor wrote. Wahlberg did a set of v-ups before getting up. The actor revealed he had been “going for an hour and a half,” before shooting the video. He also flaunted his sculpted midsection. The actor gave a shoutout to the clothing brand Municipal before ending the video with the question, “Why’re you still sleeping?”

The former musician has made similar videos before. After flaunting his abs, the actor did some Romanian deadlifts with a kettlebell. However, the latest video was his first one after Wahlberg Week, and it seems like age is just a number for the Transformers actor.

The Hollywood star is not slowing down with age

At 51, Mark Wahlberg paints a sculpted physique that many half his age do not possess. No matter how stressful it gets Wahlberg makes it a point to wake up at 4 am and hit the gym. He also doesn’t shy away from insane body transformations. For instance, in 2022, Wahlberg played an overweight character in the biographical drama Father Stu.

To play his character, the actor ate 11,000 calories every day for six weeks and put on 30 lbs of “healthy fat.” While it wasn’t “fun” for the actor, he went back to training after filming and slashed the weight in no time.
