Mark Wahlberg Just Clashed With Dr. Oz Over Intermittent Fasting

"Listen, we got beef now. You dont want this smoke, trust me," he said, citing information he's received from his friend Dr. Christopher Vincent which has informed his stance against intermittent fasting. (It makes sense that Wahlberg is pro-breakfast. After all, his workout schedule starts at 2.30 a.m. )

"If you wanna challenge me, Ill come hung over, eat a big steak, and you can do your little 20 pushups with one leg, your assisted pullup, Im telling you, youll need a defibrillator when Im done with you, alright, I'm the real thing, this is 30 years of training. I can't even take my vitamins and digest them without any food. You got to eat that food. Food is your friend."

Oz responded with a video of his own, clapping back at Wahlberg in between one-legged pushups. "I watched your video and heard the taunting," he said. "I would eat normally but I skip breakfast, I skip lunch. I feel stronger than ever because Im intermittent fasting, which you should learn more about... The balls in your court, my friend. Anytime, anywhere... By the way, those pullups, they were real."
