Dec 26, 2024

Mark Wahlberg continues demonstrating his unwavering dedication to fitness, even during the holiday season. The 52-year-old Hollywood star recently showcased his commitment to early-morning wellness routines through a compelling social media update.

In a video shared early Thursday, December 26, 2024, the acclaimed actor emerged from a locker room shower sporting navy blue shorts, displaying his impressive muscular build before undertaking a cold plunge. During the Instagram footage, Wahlberg declared, “4 am, rain or shine. It’s raining outside — we’re still going plunge.” The accompanying caption read, “Nothing like a cold plunge in the rain. @thecoldlife @municipal. 4 am club.”

This post followed another video shared the previous day, showing the actor engaged in an early morning weight training session on Christmas day. The workout clip was captioned, “4 am club @municipal #MunicipalPartner.”

The actor has frequently discussed his evolving relationship with fitness, particularly as he ages. In a 2023 conversation with People, he shared his shifting perspective. “Before, it was about aesthetics when trying to get in shape,” Wahlberg said at the time. “Now, I want to live a long time.” Promoting wellness to others, Wahlberg added, “I encourage everybody, even if you just work out for 10 minutes, you’re going to feel better.” “We’re all very fortunate and blessed. You want to live as long as possible. You want to be able to move, and certainly, you got to do it,” the ‘Deepwater Horizon’ star emphasized.

Wahlberg’s spouse, Rhea Durham joined the holiday festivities by sharing their family’s 2024 Christmas card on Instagram. The heartwarming image captures the couple alongside their four children: Ella, 21, Michael, 18, Brendan, 16, and Grace, 14, all seated together on a couch, surrounded by an illustrated wreath design.

The festive card extended wishes for a “blessed holiday season” and featured casual family snapshots. Durham’s caption read, “Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and Happiest holidays! Love, The Wahlbergs.” The couple, who tied the knot in 2009, have maintained their relationship since 2003.
