Mark Zuckerberg’s Backyard Cage: A Peek into the Tech Executive’s Unconventional Lifestyle
The Awesome, or Not So Awesome, Backyard Addition
“Yes, I saw it. It looks awesome.” These were the words Mark Zuckerberg’s wife, Chan, responded with when Mark messaged her about the fighting cage he had set up in their backyard. However, her curt responses seemed to imply that she was less than pleased about the idea. “We have plenty of yard space!” Zuckerberg defended, to which Chan bluntly replied, “I have been working on that grass for two years.”
A Fitness Transformation
Mark Zuckerberg has been on a fitness transformation over the past few years, and the backyard fighting cage seems to be the latest addition to his regimen. During the pandemic, the tech mogul took up the martial art of Brazilian jiu-jitsu, even winning gold and silver medals at a tournament in May. His dedication to fitness and challenging himself physically is evident in his participation in the Murph Challenge on Memorial Day. Named after a Navy SEAL who was killed in action in Afghanistan, this grueling workout involves wearing a 20-pound weighted vest and completing 100 pull-ups, 200 push-ups, 300 squats, and a mile-long run. Zuckerberg finished the challenge in under 40 minutes, proudly sharing his time with his 2.3 million followers on Instagram.
A Challenge to Elon Musk
In June, billionaire Elon Musk publicly challenged Zuckerberg to a cage fight on Twitter, cheekily renaming himself “X.” Rather than ignoring the challenge, Zuckerberg responded with a screenshot of Musk’s tweet on Instagram, accompanied by the caption, “Send Me Location.” Despite the online banter between the two tech giants, the cage fight is yet to materialize.
The 4,000-Calorie MMA Diet
As Zuckerberg intensifies his MMA training, he has also shared a glimpse into his 4,000-calorie diet. In response to a McDonald’s thread post about everyone’s orders, Zuckerberg revealed his indulgent preferences, stating, “20 nuggets, a quarter pounder, large fries, Oreo McFlurry, apple pie, and maybe some side cheeseburgers for later?” He further explained, “Not cutting weight so I need ~4000 calories a day to offset all the activity. And it’s so delicious…”
Tech Executives and Washboard Abs
Zuckerberg is not the only hotshot tech executive working on his physique. Amazon’s Jeff Bezos has also garnered attention for his recent muscular transformation. It seems that beyond the world of coding and algorithms, these tech moguls are making waves in the fitness realm.

A Multi-Faceted Family
In addition to navigating a fighting cage in her backyard, Chan Zuckerberg is a philanthropist and former pediatrician. The couple met at a fraternity party in 2003 while attending Harvard University. Zuckerberg, famously starting Facebook in his dorm room, married Chan on May 19, 2012, just a day after Facebook went public on the stock market. The couple currently resides in Palo Alto, California, in a luxurious five-bedroom, five-bathroom mansion, complete with their own personal AI assistant named Jarvis.
Mark Zuckerberg’s unconventional lifestyle provides a glimpse into the exciting and humorous world of a tech executive. From his backyard fighting cage to his fitness endeavors and indulgent diet, Zuckerberg’s multifaceted life is both captivating and relatable. Despite the occasional banter with fellow billionaires and the attention-grabbing transformations of his physique, Zuckerberg remains focused on making his mark in the tech industry while raising a family alongside his philanthropist wife.
