MrBeast is living up to his name.
The popular YouTuber, whose legal name is Jimmy Donaldson, shared an impressive transformation snap to Twitter on Thursday, adding to the list of tycoons getting shredded for summer.
“Woke up and realized I was obese so I started lifting and walking 12,500 steps a day,” he tweeted along with the side-by-side shirtless photos, eliciting more than 640,000 likes.
“Still got a long way to being yoked but I’m happy with my progress so far,” Donaldson, 25, added.
The YouTuber’s latest tweet is the most recent update on his yearlong fitness journey, which he previously divulged this month.
“I’ve been lifting religiously for 10 months (with trainer, 12k steps a day, good sleep, good diet) and I’ve gone from obese to just lean. I have a new found respect for jacked people, this takes forever lol,” he tweeted, in part, earlier in June, sharing his body fat percentage before and after he started weight training.
It appears the content creator is following in the footsteps of Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg and Twitter owner Elon Musk, all of whom have bared their beach bods as of late.
But it’s impressive that Donaldson has even an hour for the gym — he previously admitted he works tirelessly to maintain his massive viewership online.
At times, he said, he works for up to eight days straight making YouTube content.
On the platform, he touts more than 163 million subscribers, making him one of the most-followed YouTubers in the world, per Forbes.
“There are just some nights where I don’t wanna sleep, and for whatever reason, I feel compelled to go all night,” he said in January while appearing on a podcast hosted by Russian-American computer scientist Lex Fridman.
“And when I’m really in the grind mode it’ll be seven or eight days just non-stop going, going, and then I’ll realize, ‘Oh, I need some recharge time,’ and then go f–king binge a season of anime,” added Donaldson, who is most known for his videos of wild stunts.
The Post has reached out to MrBeast for comment.
