EXCLUSIVE: Mark Wahlberg wakes up at 2:30am before heading to the gym just before 4am. He is now turning this early-morning workout routine to YouTube.
The Flight Risk star is launching 4AM Club Challenge on the Google-owned streaming service.
The ten-part series will see Wahlberg putting some of the world’s biggest digital creators through his famous workout routine at his home gym while also holding candid conversations. Guests for the first season include Brent Rivera, Druski, The Stokes Twins, Adam W, Jesse James West, Hannah Stocking, Ben Azelart, Dhar Mann, Pierson, and Airrack.
4AM Club Challenge will premiere on March 27 at 7am PT on Wahlberg’s new YouTube channel. It is produced by his Unrealistic Ideas production company with new episodes debuting every other week.
Unrealistic Ideas, which was founded by Wahlberg, Archie Gips and Stephen Levinson, is behind series such as HBO Max’s Wahl Street and HBO doc McMillion$.
The company is making its first move into the creator ecosystem as it builds out its YouTube strategy led by Gips and UI producer Dylan Woodhouse.
“I’ve always believed that how you start your morning sets the tone for everything else,” said Wahlberg. “The 4AM Club is about discipline, accountability, and pushing yourself to be better. Bringing these creators into my world has been a lot of fun.”
“We wanted to create something that shows a different side of both Mark and these creators,” added Archie Gips, President of Unrealistic Ideas. “The workouts are real, the conversations are real, and the personalities really come through. It’s competitive, it’s funny, and it’s ultimately about the mindset it takes to succeed.”
