I love this. I'm a long haul trucker and I make a point of getting out of the truck almost every day and going for a brisk walk. I've been trucking almost 14 years and I still haven't gotten fat.

Congratulations Mark. I walk 70k step a day.. every single day, 5 days a week as a UK Postman. 100k steps is an admirable achievement well done.

You have started resembling a retired Navy Seal..

When i started it used to be a damn chore to even walk 5K steps. Now i love it and easily walk 15K a day.

Making small decisions every day to get more steps has not only become a fun game i play it's changed my life. Lifting and walking man, everyone should! When i first started wanting to walk more, i couldn't go half a mile without my legs burning, now i easily walk several miles throughout the day and it's absolutely been game changing

This video deserves way more love, tons of knowledge being spread

amazing video. walking helped saved my life and it's still a daily discipline as important as the gym, low-ish carbohydrate eating, etc.

Love random little challenges like this. Thanks for sharing!

Great motivation!!!!! Keep pushing

Can’t believe I’m late to this video. I’ve been waiting for this. Great job, Mark!

Longevity is key! What an inspiration. Time to get my lazy ass moving tomorrow. Thanks Mark.

Way to go mark. Your will is unshakable. Nobody had a doubt you would achieve this. Very inspiring.

Awesome effort Mark, truly inspirational ✌

Ring the Bell!! Incredible job with the walk and the telling of the story! Of all the videos I've seen on this challenge, you started earliest, finished earliest, & were least defeated!! I'm going to start at midnight!

Incredible!

Wish I could have joined! I really like the emphasis on people getting started at ANY level and something so simple can be so beneficial for anyone.

Big physical accomplishment !

pretty amazing to invite others to join you man, congrats!

Well done Mark truly great effort, cheers from Melbourne Australia 👍

Mark! Inspirational video. Thank you. Wow. Really, WOW. 100,000 steps in a day is an achievement for anybody. Your commentary during this video all rings true.

Thank you Mark

You got this ❤️

From 900lbs+ bench to this. May you stay healthy Mark!

Great “journey “ Always good to see you and your ideas

Amazing work

There are so many of us who have lifted on and off, or eaten right, on and off, or walked/ran, on and off, that this video is great for, especially the sound bite at the end. Keeping it simple (just put one foot in front of the other) to get started is the best advice. Headed at the hotel door at 5:05 am. gonna walk until 6:05 am, Day 1. Thanks, Mark.

Great job bud! Appreciate your thoughts on fitness

Very inspiring Mark

Unbelievable. Great job.

Great vid! I do minimum 15k steps a day and love it, people underestimate walking

Haven't watched your videos is a while, the stache and the hair reaaly surprrised me! Mark do be looking like your average 80's PE instructor, haha! This was a nice video, keep it up!

I'm up for this challenge!🔥

Nice work mark

I just did a 14+ mile 30 obstacles Spartan Beast on a ski resort mountain. 8 hours in the course. It was brutal. Walking 50 miles is dope. Respect!

Nice one Mark

Congratulations brother.

Inspirational 👌🏿👌🏿

BAD ASS!

great pal

When you have accomplished all you set out to do in powerlifting and have to do the opposite.

That’s some serious amount of steps…. Props to you man. I had to do 10k steps per day for 8 weeks preparing for my first bodybuilding show and I thought that was difficult…. You just done that x10 lol

Thanks for the insight. Just finished walking 50 miles. Ouch.

Well done bro

Marks awesome

I’m doing this next month! 😊

Well done to the camera man

awesome

Thanks broham

Its amazing who these greats break gigantic things into little pieces which seem simple and easy. "Eat the elephant by one bite at a time." Love it!

How many days of pain came from doing this? doms musta been rough

Run Forrest run, everthing u do turns to gold😎

Bro you look very healthy and a handsome stud!!

That's a full day journey

Just finished my 100,000 steps, in barefoot shoes the whole way, I’ve never been in more physical pain in my life. But, I fucking did it.

Yes sir

Walking is great. I usually work out 5-6 times a week and run 2-3 times a week. But when I go for 5km walks every day and cut down on everything else(usually in the summer when on vacation), I lose weight real fast.

Hard challenge. Congrats

Nice

I work in a hospital man. Do about 16-20 thousand steps a day depending on the day. Sometimes I have to do a double shift.

Hey Mark I gotta ask how long did it take for you to go from 350 pounds to 230 I’m currently on 220 pounds and hope to get down to around 190 pounds how long would that around take me that is give a take 15 to 20 kg I’m using the metric system

I completed my 100k challenge yesterday, on September 3, 2022. By in large thanks to you and @Simple Man

How long did it take?

Lol. Great video. I work excavation and do about 16,000 steps a day. Lol it sucks but helps. I would be there with you especially when pizza is involved

What was tougher, this or squat 1100lbs?

I do easily 20.000/day due to work. I've done 52.000 last winter on a heavy snow removal day. Most of them were while snowblowing or shovelling. Brutal day but it helped my business a lot too!$$$

RE SPECT WALK!!!!!!!!!!

I walk 1 hour on the treadmill (2.7 mph 3 degree incline) 6 days a week after my weight training, which is also 6 days a week. Only the jump rope gave me superior fat burning, but the more muscular and heavier you are, the more joint pain you will developer skipping rope. Almost anybody can walk.

You’re a huge inspiration man - how are you feeling on TRT?

Watching this at 0100 while at work and I'm going to try and get 5k steps before I leave.

The Stache aids in extra endurance

Mark you might want to try out flux shoes. They’re my favorite barefoot style runners and trainers.

Doing this Saturday December 16, 2023

I love you

“I started walking probably about 10 years ago.” What did you before that?

Mark looks so lean and jacked. Amazing.

My inner thighs would be bleeding lol

Hey now

Mr.Sling is about to be Mr.Slim, what’s next?? Mr.Bean but weird fore real😎👌 Love u man👌Walk the shit out of that body, see a new Forrest Gump in you now, it explains so much my friend. Do what ever u do, it turns to gold👌😎

funny how another mark also attempted 100 000 steps in a day

Not wanting to do 50 mi in a day (unless it is literally bug out on foot time), but walking is important to me, always has been. One thing that I learned some time ago and it has really helped me. Anything other than water is NOT hydration. It seems that if there is flavorings of any sort in water that our bodies treat it as a liquid "food" and thus uses very little to rehydrate the body and will sweat, pee, or poop to get it out. Not that the other drinks that have electrolytes and or carbs are not important, they are. But I never try to use them to rehydrate the body. And I have learned to do a detox tea twice a week to get toxins out of my body. That helps me to absorb more nutrients and keeps toxins from blocking my nutrient intake and or my immune system. I am 68 and did not live right for much of my life. My biggest downfall was the california culture I had gotten into as a kid and did not officialy stop until two days after 9/11. So, clean and sober. Eat as clean as possible. Beat stage 4 leukemia and did it by way of herbal remedies, eating kosher, a fully balanced diet, vitamin therapy/electrolyte therapy, and prayer/meditation (it is important for me to have that connection with my higher power as well as myself) and all of this with no chemo or radiation. Took a couple of years but hey, here I am and to think the docs told me I had 6 mos to live. I think I am doing pretty good for a ghost, eh?

Pokémon Go helps me go for walks

Just trying to help out.

I ate a large bag of skittles watching this. Does that make me a bad person?

I disagree with what you said in the end, I think the next couple of days/weeks of walking will be way easier. I swam 22 km at my 22nd birthday 2 km at a time, and I was in the pool the next day and 2 km felt like nothing.

I shoot for 22500 every day

Hey Mark I just issued a body weight bench press challenge for all I would be greatly honored if you could join in this friendly competition

That's a lot of 10 minute walks.

Awesome!!! So question is: if you could have changes 20 years ago, would you have changed? Would you now tell the youth to chase health over trophies? Health / wellness is a huge priority in life. Sad that people do all the others things like sports, career, college before they invest in their own health. Too many multi millionaire lawyers, doctors and investment bankers at 40% body fat or fatty liver disease from drinking. Too many chase the money in spite of their health. Too many heavy weight bodybuilders and powerlifters willing to destroy health for a plastic trophy. Then later in life they change. If only the change could have happened sooner. Lastly, to every one, please make spouse, kids, family and friends a major priority as well. Divorce rates continue to climb, loyalty and commitment at a all time low in the world.

Well I took 4 shits today and it's only 11:30....

I walked 10 miles from 3 a.m. to 6 a.m. from the apt by Loehmans Plaza to Mel's Diner on J st. Ate a veggie omelet then walked back to my apt where my girlfriend was still asleep. I walked into our room dropped my drawers and rubbed my sweatty balls on her nose. She wasn't really turned on by that... Not amused either.
