Mark Wahlberg reveals his thoughts on his famous early morning workouts
Contrary to Popular Belief
Despite his reputation for hitting the gym early in the morning, Mark Wahlberg admits that there are times when he doesn't feel like working out.
During the LIV Golf Las Vegas Big Game Party, Wahlberg shared with PEOPLE that he sometimes struggles to find the motivation for exercise.
When asked if he ever feels like skipping his workouts, Wahlberg responded, 'I feel it more often than you think.'
Starting the Day Right
However, Wahlberg has a routine that helps him get into the right mindset to exercise.
He begins his day by sitting in a 35-degree tub of water and ice, also known as a cold plunge.
This wake-up call helps him feel energized and ready to tackle his workout.
The Importance of Rest and Recovery
While Wahlberg is known for his intense workout videos on social media, he also recognizes the significance of rest and recovery.
During his vacation to Barbados in December, Wahlberg took the opportunity to relax and enjoy time with his family.
However, he emphasizes that intentionally challenging himself and working hard is an essential part of his lifestyle.
Pushing Through the Challenges
Even on days when he isn't fully motivated, Wahlberg finds ways to stay committed to his fitness routine.
He may modify his gym session or make adjustments during the workout itself.
Wahlberg believes that pushing through the initial sluggishness often leads to some of his best workouts.
