"Eight hours of sleep always," Wahlberg says in the video. "If I'm in the gym at 1, that means I went to bed at 5. OK, do the math.

"We're working, we're shooting. So, if we got to leave at 4, I got to get up at 1. I got to get this s--- done." 

Wahlberg also shared in the clip that his workouts always begin the same way.

"Everything in moderation. Should you be able to enjoy foods and desserts? All of those things – enjoy. But eating right, exercise and finding the right balance [is important,]" Wahlberg previously told Fox News Digital.

"I just encourage people to start young. Communicating to people the importance of living healthy and long lives. When you get older, you start feeling it, then you realize. But you know the great saying, ‘Youth is wasted on the young.’ We want to get people before that."
