Mark Wahlberg Shows Off Jacked Physique While Training Behind-The-Neck Presses
Boston, Massachusetts native Mark Wahlberg is an entertainment icon with a passion for fitness. In a pair of Instagram posts, Wahlberg showed off some of his training, which included behind-the-neck presses.
Wahlberg is a versatile actor and performer, who first made a name for himself as a rapper in the 1990s as the leader of the Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch, the same group who went number one with “Good Vibrations” in 1991. In addition, he became a popular Calvin Klein model with many taking notice of his muscular physique.
The 52-year-old has taken part in numerous blockbuster hits as an actor. He’s participated in The Transformers franchise and has worked with esteemed directors in film such as Martin Scorsese in The Departed. One film, in particular, required Wahlberg to gain a dramatic amount of weight. He played a boxer-turned-priest in Father Stu. Looking back, Wahlberg revealed that he had to eat an 11,000-calorie diet for rapid weight gain.
After putting on the weight, Wahlberg faced a tough journey as he took part in a reverse body transformation. Wahlberg said the transformation took 14 weeks and eventually, his abs started showing again. The outcome, while shocking to many, showcased Wahlberg’s dedication and discipline to healthy living.
And while he still operates under a tight schedule, Wahlberg never misses a training session. He’s become famous for his middle-of-the-night and 4 A.M. workout routines, where he takes great pride in starting his days earlier than most.
