The celeb is super dedicated to his overall wellness and self-care. In fact, a Men’s Journal article refers to Mark Wahlberg as “one of the hardest-working guys in the business.” When you learn what he packs into each day, you’ll understand why.
Wahlberg tells Men’s Health (via PEOPLE), “I don’t play basketball anymore because I don’t want to roll an ankle and miss a movie or screw up my golf game.” He adds, “I’m doing [the Versaclimber, a machine similar to a stairclimber] twice a day and jumping rope.” He also makes time for treatment with a physiotherapist.
The “Ted” star is able to stay so on task and accomplish so much by maintaining an early-to-bed, early-to-rise routine. We’re talking about a 2:30 a.m. start to his day, but it’s a must in order to accomplish all he does!

According to PEOPLE, Mark Wahlberg is also a fan of using cryotherapy for recovery. What’s involved in a cryotherapy sesh? Well, according to PEOPLE, Wahlberg listens to music and walks in a small, very cold room (cryotherapy chamber) for no more than three minutes. By cold, we mean -150 degrees. He wears a mask, hat, socks, and underwear for the session. The process is an excellent inflammation reducer and sleep aid, so it’s a keeper!

Wahlberg’s training has focused on “range of motion, activation, and movement prep,” also known as RAMP, according to Men’s Journal. This consists of things like foam rolling, Spiderman stretch, and hip bridges. Next on deck would alternate between unilateral and bilateral strength moves with heavy bands, dumbbells, kettlebells, and TRX. For lower body training, think agility drills and balance.
When it comes to nutritious food habits, protein is Wahlberg’s best pal. The actor enjoys turkey burgers, meatballs, and egg whites. While filming the movie “Mile 22,” Wahlberg adhered to a clean eating diet, complete with strict portions and timing of meals. He stuck with it after the film with the help of a personal chef.

His morning eating and fitness schedule is quite specific. According to Australian Men’s Health, Wahlberg gets in a walk at 2:30 a.m., then breakfast takes place at 3:15 a.m., with a menu of eggs, steel-cut oats, peanut butter, and blueberries. Workout #1 is next, at 3:40 a.m. (He works out with personal trainer, Brian Nguyen.) This workout is followed by a second breakfast, which includes three turkey burgers and a protein shake at 5:30 a.m. By 7:30 a.m., this powerhouse is back at it teeing off on the golf course, then returns to the cryotherapy chamber by 9:30 a.m. for recovery. Talk about being productive!
What’s next? It’s time for the third breakfast, of course, complete with grilled chicken salad, two hard-boiled eggs, cucumber, avocado, olives, lettuce, and tomato. Lunch is at 1 p.m., followed by a grilled chicken and bok choy snack later on in the afternoon. At 4 p.m., it’s time for Whalberg’s second workout, then dinner at 5:30 p.m., which includes sea bass, cod, or halibut with a side of bok choy or sautéed spinach. At 8 p.m., Wahlberg is catching some solid Z’s in order to repeat the entire routine about 6 1/2 hours later. We don’t know about you, but we are exhausted just reading every step he takes!
One of the reasons why the actor maintains discipline is the constant need to transform his body to fit movie roles. A perfect example of transformation is when he played the role of Father Stu. Australian Men’s Health reports that Wahlberg consumed 7,000 calories daily to pack on the right amount of weight. To do so, he ate 20 pieces of chicken nuggets and 20 pieces of hot wings from KFC, washing it all down with a six-pack of beer each day. He tells Jimmy Kimmel, “Dude, I’ve been on such a regimen for so long, I just want to eat everything in sight. I want to go to bakeries, I want to go to Denny’s, I want to get pancakes. I want to get everything that I could possibly get my hands on.”
Some great advice on reaching your own health and fitness goals from Wahlberg? He says (via PEOPLE), “Keep getting after it, and be more and more aggressive, more and more focused every day. I don’t know. I have more drive and desire now than I ever have.”
