It is entirely possible that The Rock, like any other athlete, may have specific muscle groups that are more naturally developed due to genetics, training history, or other factors. In the case of his calves, it’s important to note that genetics might play a role in their appearance, despite his overall impressive physique.

One of the users however commented on the post saying, “Skipping leg day I see,” whereas another user wrote, “I love the rock but he gotta work on his calfs.” Another critic stated, “You Skip leg day,” while a person agreeing with Dwayne’s point of view towards training wrote, “Best self help therapy.” While one of his fans complimented him by saying, “Who is this guy? He’s pretty big,” another person pointed towards his legs stating, “Oh no. Not the chicken legs.”
