Being Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson may have endless perks, but it certainly involves a great deal of discipline and dedication.
The former WWE wrestler is known for his strict diets and crazy training regiments, but his former director Stephen Merchant revealed just how much dedication the actor needs to maintain his amazing physique.
Merchant, who directed the 2019 movie “Fighting With My Family” starring Johnson, appeared on SiriusXM’s “Jim Norton and Sam Roberts,” and talked about the actor’s intense eating schedule.
“I think someone told me, maybe he told me, that when he goes out to dinner with friends, he should take his food to the restaurant and have them reheat it because it’s such a structured diet that he must have said Merchant.
But his quirky eating habits didn’t end there.
“I remember meeting him just in Texas just before WrestleMania and we had a meeting about the movie and his alarm went off at 3:17 pm and he would go to the fridge and there would be turkey and rice with ’15:17 pm’ written on it and he would put it in the microwave,” Merchant recalled. “It was so regulated.”
The Rock recently unveiled its biggest cheat meal ever, which it considered “one for the history books.”
During his first time trying the fast food restaurant In & Out, the actor paired his two Double Double burgers and two large fries with some tequila.
“A #cheatmealsunday for the history books,” he wrote to his 332 million Instagram followers. “My first time ever eating @innout.”
“A solid start with a bite of good fries – as we know, sweet potato fries can ruin the whole experience,” the “Black Adam” star continued.
“[I paired] the main course with a (pretty tasty) combo pour from @TeremanaBlanco & @TeremanaReposado; as founder, I make up the tequila rules .”
Johnson then jokingly raised a thumbs up for his taste test verdict.
“This cheeseburger connoisseur will now add In & Out to ‘the list’ ,” he added. “Enjoy your cheat meals, my friends.”
