- ‘Blood, Sweat and Respect
- The first two you give,
- The last one you earn’
Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson lives by these words. The most electrifying Superstar in the history of WWE is back with his fitness regime for 2019. The people’s champion is on a mission to inspire all around him to switch to a healthier and stronger lifestyle. The Rock hits the gym six times a week and then works out as if there is no tomorrow. He is really the epitome of strength and weakness.
But how did he reach there? Certainly not by just going to the gym. No, Rock’s daily fitness regime doesn’t start at the gym. It starts as soon as he wakes up. His morning starts at 4:00 am. On some days he ties up his running shoes and goes for a run around the neighborhood. Once he’s completed running, he eats breakfast. It’s after the breakfast, Johnson gets the gym.
Rock dedicates a full sequence to a specific area of the body each day. Although the exercises change depending on his goals what that remains sains is 4 sets and 12 reps with a 60-90 second rest period.
