Fitness influencer Ashton Hall recently went viral after a clip detailing his daily routine surfaced online, sparking debate. Hall, who boasts millions of followers across social media, shared that he wakes up at 4 am and spends the first six hours of his day exercising, eating, and preparing content.
The video was originally posted on February 8, 2025, but gained traction after being reshared by a men's fitness page on X on March 20. However, his routine was met with mixed reactions, with many questioning the efficiency of his schedule.
The debate escalated after X users began criticizing Hall's routine. The post quickly went viral, accumulating thousands of likes and comments from those who either ridiculed or defended Hall's lifestyle. Many social media users were unimpressed with his routine, arguing that waking up early does not automatically equate to productivity.
"Bro woke up at 4am in the morning to spend 6 hours bullsh*tting," an X user quote tweeted.

Many continued criticizing the routine, and one questioned the authenticity of Hall's content.
This sh*t is easy when you have 0 responsibility and live in a cheap apartment. Nothing impressive here," one user stated.
"Imagine waking up at 3:45am but literally getting nothing done by 9am apart from exercise and eating," another user wrote.
"When I see vids like this, I think bout how many times it took to start/stop and set up the camera," someone commented.
Despite the criticism, many came to Ashton Hall's defense, highlighting his accomplishments and disciplined lifestyle.
"This trend of laughing at people who are doing better with their lives is what is really cringy! This dude got 7 million followers on Instagram alone doing what he loves and making millions off it," one user noted.
"Why are people jealous of this man cos I like his content and it pushes u to hit the gym and live good," another supporter wrote.
"Not sure why people are hating on this guy. It takes a lot of discipline to have this type of body. Why are we hating from outside the box?" someone stated.
