Internet can’t stop with the memes as Fitness influencer Ashton Hall’s ‘morning routine’ goes viral

Fitness influencer Ashton Hall's viral video, "The morning routine that changed my life 3:50 AM to 9:30 AM," has the internet simply baffled. And it isn't due to his wake-up time—that's a general standard for an influencer now. It's the over-the-top, bordering-on-religious commitment to splashing his face with ice water.

The video begins with Hall tearing tape from his mouth. Why? We will probably never know. Following a swift brushing of the teeth, he walks out onto his balcony for what we can only hope is an existential crisis because, sir, it is 4:00 am.

Then, Hall proceeds to a sequence of exercises. And then comes a move that is suspiciously like a twerk.

Next, Hall dunks his face into ice water. After writing something into a notebook and watching something on his phone, he dunks his face again.

Then, off to the gym for a workout session, home by 7:30 am, and onto the next step: swimming.

After the swim, he bathes, washes his face, has a banana, applies the banana peel on his face, washes his face again, dresses up in formal attire… and you guessed it—he dunks his face. Again.

Of course, the internet is going wild. Social media users have responded with memes and some side-splitting commentary.

Some are in shock at face dunking thing, others are joking about the amount of things he allegedly got accomplished by just waking up at 4:00 am, and some are rolling on the floor laughing at Ashton Hall just being extra.

Social media reacts to Ashton Hall's viral morning routine video

Social media users were joking about how many takes it took to shoot this video. Some jested that it appeared to be an ad for water, and others noted that even though he woke up at 3:45 am, he accomplished absolutely nothing by 9:00 am. Some even highlighted his "fake job" moment, which made it all the more hilarious.

A user @apegangredi humorously noted:

"When I see vids like this, I think bout how many times it took to start/stop and set up the camera."

Another user @ParallaxWisdom mentioned:

"Imagine waking up at 3:45 am but literally getting nothing done by 9 am apart from exercise and eating."

Poking fun at all the face dunking, washing face, swimming, taking a bath– a user @ZayDrummer wrote:

"This an ad for the water?"

A user @esjesjesj quipped:

"My favorite is his fake job talk when he's saying 'no we gotta get 10,000'."

This is what a user imagines Ashton Hall doing at 8:25 am:

And then there were the users who noticed even more humorous aspects of the video. From the ridiculously long time it took to open a door to the manner in which he hardly read a book before shutting it, social media is going gaga over this bizarre routine.

One of the users joked and drew attention to a hilarious element of the video—the clock's time at 7:36 am when Hall begins to leap into the pool, while he's finally jumping in by 7:40 am. The user quipped:

"Bro spends 4 minutes in mid air"

One of the users caught a funny moment—when Ashton Hall stepped onto the balcony in the morning, he suddenly made an unwarranted twerk-like gesture. The user said:

"Not the 4am twerk session 🤣"

Yet another amusing detail caught users' eyes—when Ashton Hall reached for a notebook to jot down something, he was yet on the first page.

"Bro is on page 1 of his notebook 😭"

Fans noticed yet another detail—when Ashton Hall walked onto the balcony and opened the door, the time suddenly changed from 4:00 am to 4:01 am. It took him a minute to simply open the door.

"What got me is how it took him 1 whole minute to walk outside."

Another funny point noticed by users was that Hall picked up a book to read but, after only a minute, closed it.

"starts and stops reading in the same minute, great stuff"

The video has amassed millions of views and likes on social media platforms.
