For breakfast, The Rock says he will consume a comprehensive meal containing ‘eggs, a meat like bison, a complex carb like oatmeal, and fruit, usually either papaya or blueberries.’

‘He taught me very early on not to eat to please the tongue but to eat to nourish the body. He taught me that when I was five. That’s probably why I need therapy.’

After six days of carefully crafted eating though, The Rock does get to indulge in a cheat day.

And what a cheat day it is. Johnson frequently shows off his epic, savory meals on Instagram, and a recent meal saw him indulge in a massive helping of eggs and coconut banana pancakes topped off with peanut butter and syrup.

Of course, it isn’t just his diet that The Rock can attribute his body to.

In addition to his meals, The Rock hits the gym six days a week, according to Men’s Health Australia.

In order to stay in shape, Johnson works out at the home gym he has dubbed ‘The Iron Paradise’ at his place in Miami.

The workouts continue when he’s away filming movies – Johnson previously revealed he has a crew assemble a gym for him filled with 40,000 pounds of steel and iron.

The results were on full display in his latest film, the DC flick Black Adam, which saw him don a skintight superhero suit.

Johnson previously called filming the DC film the ‘hardest undertaking of my entire career physically [and] mentally’.

However, he added it was ‘worth every second.’
