Lindsey Vonn retired from competitive skiing in 2019, and the first deal she signed was as a brand ambassador for Under Armour’s Project Rock, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson‘s line. The Project Rock Family Collection went on to become one of the brand’s most popular collections, centered on shared motivation and community. Over the years, Vonn’s bond with Johnson has grown into a close friendship, as seen by their various collaborations.

Vonn, a former World Cup alpine ski racer, has been an integral part of marketing the Project Rock brand and is frequently spotted wearing its clothing line during intense workout sessions. After the consistent success, recently Vonn appeared in a new campaign for the line.

So, how did their unexpected friendship develop? It all started when Vonn heard The Rock say she could keep up with him at the gym. Intrigued, she joined their regular training sessions, resulting in mutual admiration and friendship. The exchange of voice notes, birthday cards, and shared experiences has strengthened their bond, with Vonn recognizing The Rock’s role in her athletic and emotional development. But being friends with the former wrestler means there were enough instances of head-to-head workout faceoffs.

Lifting weights and spirits in the gym

The beginning of their friendship goes back to a Sports Illustrated cover shoot when asked, “Could anyone keep up with you in the gym?” ‘The Rock’ simply mentioned Lindsey Vonn’s name. This short exchange signaled the start of their growing friendship, despite Lindsey’s initial doubts. Surprised by his remark, she ultimately found the bravery to rejoin him in the gym.

Vonn joked about their exercise, saying, “It’s definitely intimidating being in the gym [with him]. I told him that if we were going to exercise, we should focus on our legs because I can’t match with you in the arm department.” From there on Lindsey Vonn’s workout videos often had ‘The Rock’ commenting words of encouragement like, “Sweat equity baby!!! #healthymind.”
