Mark Wahlberg followed up Thanksgiving with a 63-hour fast to recover.

Mark Wahlberg knows how to reach his fitness goals and do it in a timely fashion. After a big Thanksgiving holiday, Wahlberg recovered with a 63-hour fast that saw him lose 12 pounds.

An advocate for starting the day on the right foot, Wahlberg engages in distinctive workout routines early in the morning, complemented by a strict diet. Research supports that exercising in the early hours, like Wahlberg, is advantageous for muscle building and weight loss (1). He takes his regimen to an exceptional level by waking up at 4 a.m., a practice many admire for its discipline.

“After today, I’m going to fast until Monday morning after the workout. Operation cleanup about to be in effect.”

Wahlberg shared a video on Friday claiming that he would be fasting until Monday morning. He stepped on the scale and shared his full results.

Mark Wahlberg Completes 63-Hour Fast

Mark Wahlberg began his fast at just over 192 pounds. He stepped on the scale and it read 180.9. This weigh-in came before an intense leg day that jumpstarted his week.

“Hour 60 of the fast. Was at 192 and change. No more f*cking crossants, baby.”

Wahlberg became known at an early age for his roles on the big screen. He would show off his incredible physique both in movies and as a model. As time went on, Wahlberg continued to display a shredded physique. As he continues to train hard, Wahlberg began training at all hours of the day and this led to the start of his “4am club.”

Mark Wahlberg also adjusts his workouts and recovery processes to his current goals. Last year, he cut out some of the early-morning workouts but focused more on ab training and cold plunges following workout sessions. His workouts at 4am have started up once again and this has become a staple to his training program.
