Last Updated onFebruary 21, 2022

From teen actor to one of the most renowned entertainers in Hollywood, Mark Wahlberg is an inspiration as he never let fame get in the way of carving out a ripped physique. The 50-year-old movie star recently shared a video on social media showing off defined abs and great conditioning.

Last year, Wahlberg transformed his body for a role in the film entitled, Father Stu. The movie featured Wahlberg playing a boxer who redirects his life path by becoming a priest. The famously ripped actor admits that he gained over 30lbs in one month for the cinema project.

Preparing his body for the movie role, Wahlberg was eating as much as 11,000 calories per day. Of course, since gaining the extra weight, it’s been Wahlberg’s priority this year to shed it and transform his physique back into the muscled build he’s been sporting since the early 90s.

In each of his acting projects, Wahlberg takes an immersive approach and always treats the movie roles he’s preparing for with a degree of authenticity. Even with money and worldwide fame, carving out a natural-looking physique with a six-pack of abs at 50 is difficult. Wahlberg never let those sentiments determine how he looks in cinema and is one of the fittest actors in the industry today.

“50!! The secret is Performance Inspired Nutrition @performinspired let’s go!! Inspired to be better. #PIPartner” Mark Wahlberg posted.

With a defined six-pack and bulging biceps, the Hollywood actor is keen on making sacrifices behind the scenes to shed off any unwanted weight from a prior movie role. His physique is inspiring without a doubt. Maintaining a low level of body fat is essential to ab definition so it would appear Wahlberg is taking his diet seriously too.

Mark Wahlberg’s post was also meant to promote a performance-inspired line of nutrition products. While the movie star focuses on making healthy lifestyle choices, he attests that losing the weight from Father Stu became increasingly difficult due to his age. Essentially, Wahlberg says once the body’s metabolism slows down, it’s far more arduous to drop the unwanted weight.

Before the clip concludes, Mark is seen taking an electric razor to his infamous “Sully” mustache he grew for his role in the hit action/adventure film Uncharted. At one point, Wahlberg encouraged his fans to grow mustaches with him in solidarity, but it looks like the star’s focus is on muscle tone now. At the age of 50, Mark Wahlberg’s shredded physique and incredible conditioning substantiate the idea that age is just a number.
