In an interview with Fox News Digital, the "Father Stu" actor explained why he's decided to change the training schedule that he's been committed to for years.
"I mean, look, I just, you know, get more and more injuries and not recovering the way I should," Wahlberg began. "There's no reason why anybody, never mind somebody at 52 years old, needs to be training, seven days a week and then doing two a days. You're just putting a pounding on your body and recovery, you know, God has given us the best possible gifts. One of them is sleep right to recover and to heal and also even cold water."
