Whats The Deal With That Guy’s Morning Routine? Ashton Hall’s Viral Morning Routine, Explained

Have you been inundated with the detailed, down-to-the-minute morning routine of fitness and entrepreneur influencer Ashton Hall? If so, you might be entitled to compensation. No, no I’m just kidding. But it is wild and it has taken over the internet by storm. Not just because of the contents of the video, but the energy it excuses.

Let’s get into it.

Although I’d never seen Ashton before (sorry to this man) Ashton Hall is an extremely popular influencer who boasts more than 8.9 million followers on Instagram and 4.8 million on TikTok. He went viral this week after a video he originally posted back in February was re-posted by a page called @Tipsformenx where it has racked up 701.5 million views at the time of writing.

You can check it out below.

The video follows Ashton as he wakes up and starts his day. From the very beginning, it’s clear that Ashton is not like us. In fact, it’s obvious that Ashton holds himself to a very high standard — one that most mere mortals will never reach.

You see, his daily morning routine starts off at 3:52am when he wakes up, removes his mouth tape, brushes his teeth and drinks some water.

At 4:01 am, he’s on the balcony of his apartment with a bottle of Saratoga water in hand. He does 13 minutes of push-ups before drinking the glass-bottled water. He then spends four minutes doing some mindful breathing.

From 4:40am to 4:55am, our friend is journaling. He spends 35 minutes watching some videos of church services on his phone before dunking his head into a bowl of ice water (Saratoga, obviously) at 5:49am. By 6:03am, he’s dressed and ready for the gym and by 6:38am he’s doing sprints on a treadmill.

At 7:30am, he’s had enough of the gym and by 7:36am he’s mid-air diving (badly) into a glorious rooftop pool. Ashton then heads to the ice cold plunge pool at 8:00am. Ashton is home at 8:21 and by 8:23 he’s in the shower prepping for the big day ahead.

When 8:43am rolls around, it’s clearly time for a snack. Not only does Ashton eat a banana, but he then uses the peel on his glowy skin (does this work?? Because I’m feeling influenced!!!).

At 9:06am, Ashton is back at his desk dressed in a blazer as a woman provides him with another ice bowl for him to dunk his face into.

My absolutely favourite bit is coming up at 9:15am when Ashton has clocked into some work and takes a phone call.

“So, looking at it, bro, we gotta go ahead and get in at least 10,000,” he says. Thank you Ashton!!!!

At 9:17, an anonymous woman is preparing the big dog a lil’ bit of breakfast which she delivers to him at 9:25am. At 9:36am, he drizzles some hot honey on his scrambled eggs, bacon and avo on toast before enjoying it with a — you guessed it — bottle of Saratoga water.

Mans is about as subtle as a flying brick with that partnership.

Although the whole thing is clearly hilarious, the big question is, how serious is Ashton about his morning routine?

Well, according to the initial caption, it seems like he is.

“Day 191 of the morning routine that changed my life 3:50am to 9:30am,” he wrote.

“Sin lives late at night.. if you’re dealing with a weak mind, bad decisions, or lack of productivity go to sleep early.”

In response, punters had a lot to say about the morning routine. Most of them were taking the piss out of the creator.

Here’s the thing, I am a ridiculous morning person.

I start work at 7am. By then, I’ve already eaten breakfast, gone to the gym, put on a full face of makeup, had a coffee and hightailed my ass to the office. I knew my morning routine was unhinged but this, THIS is next level.

However, it’s pretty clear to anyone with eyes that Mr Man’s routine isn’t entirely authentic. However, for a content creator with so many followers, I wouldn’t be surprised if he was engagement-baiting us. After all, he knows that the quick video hooks and paired with bizarre behaviour like rubbing a banana peel on his face will drive comments and engagement.

Are we just falling into Ashton Hall’s game? Probably, but I’m happy we’re all in this together.

So, are you ready to lock in and go ahead and get at least 10,000? I know I am.
