The Rock’s Extraordinary Journey: From Poverty and Chocolate Theft to Conquer Bodybuilding and Reign as King

Dwayne Johnson soon stood out with his giant-like body even though he was only a teenager.

Dwayne Johnson returned to Hawaii and bought all the chocolate in the convenience store.

Dwayne Johnson was born in 1972 in Hayward, California and grew up in Hawaii. People know him better by the nickname โ€œThe Rockโ€. Dwayne Johnson used to be a professional wrestler before developing a career as an actor and producer. Recently, the actor shared that he returned to Hawaii and corrected his past mistakes.

The Rock used to eat chocolate stolen from the store before every gym session.

The Rock said that because he was broke, he stole large chocolates from convenience stores every day for nearly a year. On the way to the gym, The Rock would stop by the store and the staff would always turn their backs to the checkout counter so they wouldnโ€™t detect his wrongdoing. The Rock said that eating chocolate has even become his habit before each training session. 

The Rockโ€™s father is Rocky Johnson โ€“ the first African-American wrestling champion.

During his recent return to Hawaii, The Rock bought all the chocolate in the convenience store. The actor affirmed: โ€œWe canโ€™t change the past and some of the silly things weโ€™ve done, but sometimes we can use a little action to help atone for our mistakes and maybe bring a smile to our faces.โ€ the lips of strangersโ€ .

Instead of chocolate-flavored cakes or candies or sweet chocolate (left), you should eat dark chocolate (right).

Cakes, candy, and chocolate are not recommended foods to eat before going to the gym. Because they contain a lot of sugar and fat. In addition, fast food such as fried chicken thighs, sausages, pizza,โ€ฆ are also not suitable. They put pressure on the digestive system, making you feel exhausted and tired when exercising. If you want to eat chocolate before exercising, you need to choose the right type, which should be dark chocolate.

The Rock at the age of 15 surprised people because of his height.

Researchers say that dark chocolate has the ability to improve exercise quality and increase endurance thanks to special substances found in cocoa. In addition, the US National Institutes of Health says that consuming moderate amounts of chocolate helps you reduce fat in the abdomen and thighs. 

When looking back at photos of The Rock when he was 14 or 15 years old, many people were surprised because he was as tall as a giant. The Rock revealed that when he was 15 years old, he was 1m90 tall and weighed 90kg.

The Rock is attracting attention with the movie โ€œBlack Adamโ€.

Even when going to school in Nashville, teachers and students suspected that The Rock was an undercover police officer. Currently, at the age of 50, The Rock still maintains his toned muscles. He is 1m96 tall and weighs 118kg, but he is not obese but muscular. The Rock maintains a practice routine every day.

His food portions are also larger than others to provide adequate nutrients for building muscle but of course are still healthy foods. On weekends, The Rock will have a โ€œcheat mealโ€ to eat comfortably.
