He believes in pushing oneself to the limit and using clever weight-training techniques while avoiding jarring movements. He now depends on controlled sets of exercises like pull-ups and keeps ego training at distant after suffering numerous injuries over the years.

Supersets

Johnson revealed how he incorporates supersets into his exercises in an Instagram video. He claimed that supersets were used throughout his entire back workout to guarantee that the muscles received a lot of blood and volume. He keeps his rest between supersets to a minimum—just enough to recover.

His body has undergone numerous surgeries throughout the years, including knee replacements, quad and adductor tear-offs, Achilles tendon repairs, and multiple hernias. He has since disclosed in interviews that his emphasis has changed to working out at the gym more effectively rather than harder.

Diet is key

Johnson claims that a key factor in his success is his diet. The actor typically has whole eggs, egg whites, oatmeal with blueberries for breakfast, along with an English muffin, stevia, cinnamon, powdered greens, beef tenderloin, and a fibre drink. Yet, his love for cheat day prevails – from pizzas to pancakes, brownies and so on, The Rock enjoys it all.

A change in perspective

Additionally, psychological aspects of fitness and weight loss are important. Johnson changed his attention to being more appreciative of his workouts, which seemed to indicate that he had also realised it. The actor began to view it as a luxury, which seemed to have greatly aided him in coping with the daily grind.
