Dwayne Johnson, also known as “The Rock”, is renowned for his mind-blowing physique.

It takes a monumental amount of training and a phenomenal amount of calories to maintain Johnson’s huge frame. Here’s a look at how he does it.

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s Diet

Speaking to Bodybuilding.com in 2018, Dwayne Johnson said: “Diet-wise, I generally eat 5 meals a day. I’m very prepared and organized, and everything is planned out in advance. It’s all measured depending on what I’m training to achieve. 

“[Staples] in my diet include chicken, steak fillets, egg whites, oatmeal, broccoli, halibut, rice, asparagus, baked potato, leafy salads, peppers, mushrooms, and onions, and then also some casein protein.”

A typical meal would be over 200g of chicken with a lot of rice, red peppers, broccoli, mushrooms and a protein shake.
