Dwayne Johnson is one of the most recognizable faces on the planet for many reasons. His acting, producing, wresting and even tequila business are some of the reasons that explain his stardom. There’s one other thing that distinguishes him from the rest: his insanely muscly physique. There’s a reason why his nickname is ‘The Rock’…
Working out is a way of life for the Johnson. As he’s explained on many occasions, the former WWE sensation spends hours upon hours in the gym working on his figure, as well as consuming thousands of calories a day. It’s been reported that to prepare for his role as Hercules, he consumed seven protein-based meals a day which equated to over four thousand calories.
The actor has once again proved he’s not human with his feat of strength. The 6 ft 5 machine has uploaded a video of him benching pressing 110-pound (50 kg) dumbbells. What’s more, he was working out as midnight. “Midnight training and burnin’ oil. Tired, but we’re all tired. Build new mountain,” was caption chosen by Hollywood’s wealthiest actor.
The post, which has already received almost half a million likes, has been filled with comments from impressed followers. “Wow, he can lift me up with one hand,” said one user. “Damn, that is crazy,” said another.
