Ski Legend Lindsey Vonn Denies an Offer to Work Alongside Close Friend Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson- Here’s Why

American actor Dwayne Johnson is known for his ring name ‘The Rock.’ You may have heard and seen how intense Dawyne’s workouts are in the gym. But have you ever seen who his gym bestie is? Dwayne shares a great bond with Lindsey Vonn, and the two are often spotted doing workouts together.

Four-time World Cup overall championship winner in skiing Lindsey Vonn calls Johnson his mentor. Recently, talking to Access Hollywood’s Zuri Hall at the 2022 red carpet of ESPY, Vonn revealed how it feels doing work out with Johnson. She said, “I cannot keep up with him on arm day, that’s just a fact…and I have like better balance and that kind of stuff, but leg day we can hang with each other. Leg day is a good day for us.” It’s a tough fight, and nobody can beat Dwayne easily in a workout.

The reporter also questioned her if she would ever participate in American Ninja Warrior. Vonn said, “My knees are a little too beat up for that, my knees, my arm, everything yours and mine both, and I am not an olympian 10 years ago maybe, but I’m gonna watch it.”

During a conversation with FN’s January edition Magazine, Vonn revealed how their friendship started. Lindsey stated, “We actually started our friendship because he was on the cover of Sports Illustrated, and they asked him, ‘Could anyone keep up with you in the gym?’ And he said the only person would be me — and I was like, whoa, whoa, I’m not sure that’s accurate. Anyways, I was shocked by the interview, and his people contacted us, and he’s been a great friend and a great mentor since then.”
