Dwayne Johnson is a man that is obsessed with working out and fitness. The Hollywood star routinely works out for 3-4 hours a day and even carries his personal gym equipment at shooting locations. He takes great care to maintain his chiseled body inside and outside the gym.

He shares his passion for fitness and bodybuilding with another WWE legend, Hulk Hogan. The Hulkster maintained a perfect physique during his wrestling days for many years. Even today, he boasts a beefed-up body and trains on a regular basis.

Both Hogan and The Rock had well-built bodies during their WWE stints and have only gone and improved upon that over the years. DJ trains as hard as anyone and looks like a colossus figure.  On the other hand, even at close to 70 years, Hogan shows no sign of slowing down and trains intensely.

The two icons have a lot in common. Both were the faces of wrestling at one point in their careers and also had success in Hollywood. DJ and Hogan also share a workout gym habit.

Dwayne Johnson and Hogan’s strict rule while working out

It is no secret that Dwayne Johnson is extremely focused during his training sessions in the gym. He has a herculean physique and pushes himself to maintain it by working out every day. It is safe to say that exercising is a way of life for the Brahma Bull.

Hulk Hogan is another person who is relentless when it comes to fitness. Despite having undergone multiple surgeries for injuries over the years, Hogan trains hard in the gym and his 24-inch pythons still look like the real deal. The physique and fitness levels these two maintain require the utmost dedication and focus. That is why both The Rock and Hogan aren’t big fans of using a cell phone when working out.

Back in 2014, the two were lifting weights and pumping iron at the Gold’s Gym alongside bodybuilding legend Lou Ferrigno and wrestler Jack Armstrong. Apparently, both The Great One and Hulk Hogan looked down on those exercising while using iPhones.

Both pro wrestlers are extremely focused in the gym and don’t like to ‘text and exercise’ in the gym, which may be a common habit these days. A fit spy said Page Six, “They have a very strict rule. No cellphones in the gym. They think it’s amazing that 60 percent of the people working out are texting more than exercising.”

With dedication such as this, it is easy to understand why DJ and the Hulkster have maintained their physique as they have over the years. The two men want little to no distraction while working out in the gym.

Although The Rock may strictly avoid using the phone when he is crushing it in the gym, he is fond of listening to music while exercising. The People’s Champion once shared his playlist that he listens to when he is lifting weights in the gym. Every gym-going person has their own rituals or quirks for Dwayne Johnson. The use of phones may be a big no, but some energetic music is always helpful.
