First Will Smith, Now Mark Wahlberg: The Rise Of The 'Dad Bod'

Mark Wahlberg is no longer waking up at an ungodly hour each day to work out.

It wasn't that long ago that Mark Wahlberg's extreme fitness regime left a wake of dropped jaws. But no longer. These days, Mark Walhberg is not waking up at 4 am or other ungodly hours to work out; in fact, he isn't working out at all. The 49-year-old actor is now rocking a 'dad bod,' his abs and chiselled physique a thing of the past - albeit recent, just three weeks it seems. In a post shared on his Instagram, Mark posted a before-after comparison of himself. "From left photo 3 weeks ago to this, now,' he wrote. The photos speak for themselves - the transformation (for a film) is because of "chef Lawrence Duran's cooking," per Mark Wahlberg. Mark Wahlberg's dad bod seems to be thrilling those beholding it. "And it looks just as hot in person baby," commented the actor's wife Rhea. 'You wear mad chubby well, homie," wrote actor and TV personality Mario Lopez. See Mark Wahlberg's post here:
