‘I Can Only Suck My Gut in for So Long!’: Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson Stuns Sylvester Stallone as He Leaves It All on the Gym Floor

One characteristic of Dwayne Johnson, which is worth note-taking, is that he likes to push his limits. The WWE star-turned-Hollywood actor is one of the highest-paid actors of all time. And it is only understandable when one looks at his work ethic. He uses social media to radiate positivity and healthy emotions to his fans. Many fans look up to the 50-year-old and try to learn from the accomplished actor. Johnson recently posted a photo on his Instagram. And that picture got the attention of a very special person.

Rocky actor Sylvester Stallone liked the picture posted by Johnson on his Instagram. The photo had a detrimental message as the caption.

Dwayne Johnson’s motivating picture

Johnson took to Instagram to post an after-workout picture for his fans. ‘The Great One’ is known for his ginormous and muscular physique. And, understandably, one needs to work hard in the gym to maintain that much muscle and size. And the actor just gave his fans a glimpse of that.

In the picture, Johnson is seen carrying a serious face and is drenched in sweat. That can make the fans imagine the intensity of his workout. Notably, his hands are covered with white chalk powder, which one uses to lift heavy weights. And it is safe to say that the actor looks huge in the picture. The picture received a lot of love worldwide. Sylvester Stallone himself liked this picture.

The actor rocked a witty caption with the picture and wrote, “I can suck my gut in for only so long before one passes out.” He added, “Great training session today. Hot, intense, pushed hard and raised the bar just a little bit more.” This mentality is something everyone must try to inculcate in themselves. Not that long ago, Dwayne Johnson shared a secret with the world.

The Rock’s admiration for Sylvester Stallone

Even though the duo has not co-starred with each other, the 50-year-old is a strong fan of The Expendables actor. He also shared a heartwarming message for his two heroes a while back, Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger. He wrote, “Sly and Arnold were MY HEROES growing up, and I will forever be GRATEFUL to them both for being so incredibly kind and supportive of me and my career when I first broke into Hollywood.”
