Dwayne Johnson is an immense man. Not just in the sense of his fame and wealth, but in his physical structure as well. Being a footballer and then a full-time wrestler for nearly 8 years, The Rock knows a little about workouts and fitness. For crying out loud, Johnson takes a mobile gym with him to every set that he has to work in.

We see his attention to detail in a lot of his YouTube or Instagram videos, in which he works out. Or we see it better in the videos where he explains a workout or teaches a routine of sorts. So, if The Rock could do that for his fans for free, his celebrity fans might get the VIP treatment, right? Called the Iron Paradise by many of his fellow actors, Johnson is fine with sharing the gym with many of his friends.
Some of those friends include Ryan Reynolds and John Krasinski. And we have seen the results of those workouts in the mentioned actors’ movies. Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan saw Krasinski fully transformed from Jim at The Office to actual hot stuff.

On the same level, Ryan Reynolds’ body in any of the recent Netflix originals is a testament to the Deadpool movies. But one more of Johnson’s friends has recently shared their story with the Iron Paradise and Dwayne Johnson. A co-star from the Jungle Cruise movie, Emily Blunt.

Even after quitting WWE and pursuing acting, the dedication and hard work that Johnson puts in his workouts is unbelievable. It comes as a shock to a lot of people to know that The Rock was asked to shed some muscle to fit in the actor persona. To which he clearly declined and went on to become the highest-paid actor in the world.
