There’s no doubt that all wrestlers have a magnificent physique as a result of their continuous effort and hard work. However, some exceptions are there who have massive bodies, from a young age, like our own, Dwayne Johnson. There must have been perks to such a huge body, but we sometimes forget the cons that come with it. Once The Rock himself pointed out the problems he faced, especially with girls, because of his body.
Once a Youtuber claimed to expose the former wrestler’s physique secret, whose video got a reply from The People’s Champ himself. It has always been of great interest in fitness freaks to know about Johnson’s diet and the secret behind the muscular body. But The Rock has continuously mentioned him being this bulky since always.
Dwayne Johnson on his earlier difficulty with girls
During a conversation in the show named Late Night with Conan O’Brien, The People’s Champ was complimented for his physique. Further, the host of the show, Con O’Brien, also asked him if Johnson has always been this big or had he bloomed late.
To answer his question, he immediately said no, and continued to share about his life as a big kid. The Great One then revealed that since the age of 13 or 14, he has been pretty huge. While talking about his teenage, The Rock also reflected upon his difficulty in interacting with girls.
He said, “So, it would be difficult to, especially with the girls because I would go to like different high schools and we kind of moved around and everybody always thought that I was an undercover cop at 15.”
“Yeah, so it was always kind of difficult especially with the girls because you know, I was like, hey, you’re trying to throw some wrap up like, hey mom,” Johnson added.
The reason behind The Rock’s imperfect physique
Over the years, people have asked several times to the ten-time world champion about his body, especially his abs. For his followers, it would be well-known that Johnson’s abs are not as perfect as they should be. There’s a reason behind it and that is his triple hernia emergency surgery that he did due to the tear off his abdomen wall.
He also shed light upon the incident that once happened in a wrestling match where The Brahma Bull tore the top of his quad off the pelvis.
So, it’s pretty clear that some of it is God’s gift to Johnson, but he also worked pretty hard to maintain a splendid physique. Let us know your thoughts on it.
