Mark Wahlberg: From bad boy to Hollywood star
Mark Wahlberg was born on June 5, 1971, to a working-class family in the Dorchester District of Boston, Massachusetts, the youngest of nine children. His parents divorced when he was 11 years old, and due to a lack of discipline, Mark Wahlberg became a troubled teenager for the next few years.
At the age of 14, Wahlberg dropped out of school and began a life on the streets, including cheating, stealing and drug trafficking. Two years later, he was imprisoned for participating in a brutal beating of a Vietnamese man and had to spend 45 days in prison, a time that made him reflect, vowing to change his life and start working hard to get fit and make his body look impressive.
When Wahlberg was released from prison, his older brother Downey was already soaring in the music scene, he was one of five new faces in the pop band New Kids on the Block, and with the help of his brother Downey, Wahlberg quickly found his place in the music world.
Soon after, Wahlberg recorded his debut album, which featured "Good Vibrations" and "Wildside" as hits, and Mark excitedly stripped off his clothes on stage and in the video, revealing his rock-solid physique, resulting in platinum sales. Wahlberg's good build also led him to sign a two-year lingerie modeling contract with designer Calvin Klein.
Wahlberg began his career in film in 1993, starring in several blockbuster films, including Perfect Storm, Planet of the Apes and The Italian Job, where he was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for his role as a police officer in the crime drama Infernal Affairs (2006) and for Mitch Ward in the biopic sports film Mitch Ward (2010).
In the 2010s, Wahlberg gained successful comedy roles in The Other People (2010), Teddy Bear (2012), Daddy's House, and became the main character in the Transformers live-action film series (2014, 2017), making him one of Hollywood's A-list actors and the world's highest-paid actor in 2017.
Not only did he act well, but Walberg was also quite a businessman, buying a stake in The Arbadog Restaurant Company, co-owning the Wahlburg Restaurant Company, and founding the Quaker Fifty Water Company, which made a lot of money.
Wahlberg married model Rhea Durham in 2009, has 4 children, has a successful career, and has a happy family.
Second, stay in shape for 30 years, and the muscle growth is amazing
Mark Wahlberg is a fitness fanatic, usually very disciplined in life, he likes to get up early to pray, then do the first workout before sunrise, and do another fitness training every day at 4-5 pm, long years of fitness training, so that he has maintained a strong physique for nearly 30 years.
Wahlberg starred in the blockbuster give and take, starring alongside the wildly popular muscle star Dwayne Johnson, one of the most popular muscle stars on social media and has more than 335 million followers on Ins.
In order to portray the character in the movie, Wahlberg made great sacrifices, often gaining muscle or losing weight, and in order to play Father Stuart Long in "The Godfather of Stuart" (telling the story of a boxer who became a priest), he had to gain 30 pounds in a very short period of time, eat 11,000 calories a day, and eat every three hours, which made him miserable.
You know, at that time, Wahlberg was 50 years old, and as he grew older, people's metabolism would slow down, and it would become more and more difficult to stay in shape, but this situation did not bother Wahlberg, who still regularly shared fitness skills with fans and gave people an insight into the lives of front-line actors.
Wahlberg shared a leg exercise in June showing off his crazy quadriceps, in which he used a method of restricting blood flow, which was considered by many to be a bit excessive and dangerous, while he didn't care at all like a young guy.
Recently, Mark Wahlberg, who has turned 51, showed his amazing muscular physique in a new photo on Facebook, he is in better shape than usual, muscular, smooth lines, 6-pack abs are clearly visible, simply hormone-bursting! It's hard to believe that this is the figure of a man in his 50s, so good physical condition that even fans question his natural fitness.
It is said that self-disciplined people are the most handsome, because fitness is a thing that needs to be adhered to for a long time, it is not easy at all, and your physical state represents your mental state. When someone asked Mark Wahlberg "is it difficult to gain muscle or lose weight", he said that it is not difficult to gain muscle or lose weight, and the hardest thing is to maintain a good body all the time!
