If anyone wonders how this Hollywood superstar nicknamed The Rock can maintain his toned physique and incredible strength, just look at his diet and exercise regimen.
That is the basis for The Rock to build massive thighs and cannon-like biceps. In addition to the aesthetic issue, the tiring training also helps him a lot mentally.
“You can push yourself to the limit, you can push past your limits or your perceived limits. Often when you push past your limits, something amazing is waiting for you,” Johnson said in an Instagram post.
Johnson’s workout routine is meticulous, comprehensive, and tends to change depending on whether he’s trying to gain weight, lose weight, or maintain weight. Johnson has shown people on YouTube his six-day-a-week workout regimen, with each day featuring a different exercise for each muscle group: legs, back, shoulders, arms, abs, chest.
The Rock eats 7 meals a day
It can be said that this guy knows how to eat, the American press jokingly commented: “Johnson eats like a bear”. This Hollywood star’s diet plan includes consuming 8,000 calories per day, about 4 times the average recommended intake for adult men.
This high-calorie diet is based on Dwayne Johnson’s grueling workouts and impressive physique. His diet consists mainly of lean protein, whole grains, fresh fruits and vegetables, and minimal processed foods and sugar.
One of the key elements of The Rock’s diet plan is the structure of his meals. He eats about seven times a day, each time fitting around his workout schedule to maximize nutrient absorption.
The star typically starts his day with rice cream or oatmeal, topped with some buffalo meat and eggs. His second meal is rice or sweet potatoes and some chicken, followed by a third meal of chicken and rice, or buffalo meat and greens…
It is important to note that such a diet plan is specific to The Rock and his workout routine, so his fans should not follow it if they do not have such a formidable physique and workout intensity.
