Mark Wahlberg is 51, and he looks super fit and healthy on and off camera. This got me thinking, does Mark Wahlberg use kettlebells in his workouts?

I did some digging online, and it looks like the answer is YES!

According to an article where they interviewed his long-time trainer Brian Nguyen:

Mark Wahlberg was squatting and benching heavy and pumping up big time for his role in Pain & Gain, where he played a bodybuilding criminal.

Apparently, he then only had four weeks in between finishing Pain & Gain and starting on Lone Survivor, where he had to actually drop weight and build functional strength, mobility, etc for marine training, which involved a lot of functional work, going up and down hills, etc.

So – when he trained for functional fitness and mobility – which, if you’re reading my email newsletter, is probably more like YOU want to train! – accoring to his trainer, he was doing bodyweight movements and kettlebells.

If you’re looking to get functional fitness, mobility, and send your conditioning levels sky-high like Mark Wahlberg, you should join my upcoming 28-day Kettlebell Challenge. Just follow the link below to sign up:
