The Rock works his abdominals twice per week, doing Swish-ball crunches for four sets, 25 reps each, holding a weight against his chest.

DIET
Taken from Men's Health Magazine (April 2004)
The first lesson of weight loss is counterintuitive: Eat More. With his old diet regime, The Rock simplay wasn't eating enough. He'd also stop his carb intake after 3 pm., which left his body without fuel. The result was lower metabolism. All that changed when trainer Billy Beck kept The Rock's body stoked with the following meal plan-an average of 600 calories a setting, six times a day. with burning fat in mind. "You've got to intoduce balance into your diet." Beck says. "Think of a Mercedes symbol; the ideal meal is a combination of lean protein, starchy carbs, and fibrous vegetables." Now, you probably don't carry 245 pounds on a 6'4" frame, so you won't consume Rock-like volumes. But with a little long division, the principles can work for you. For instance, a 180-pound Dwayne wannabe woud need to pack 3,100 calories a day. Vigorus muscle makers of other sizes can adjust their meals accordingly. Here's what fuels a typical day in the life of The Rock.

Meal One- 10 egg whites, scrambled, 3 servings cream of rice or 1 cup oatmeal, 3 rice cakes, 24 oz water
Meal Two- 6-oz skinless grilled chicken breast, 1 cup grits, 6 oz yams, 1 cup of steamed asparagus, 24 oz water
Meal Three- 6-oz water-packed tuna, 1 cup brown rice, 1 sliced cucumber, 24 oz water
Meal Four- 6-oz perch fillet, 1 cup barley, 6-oz baked potato, 1 cup steamed green beans, 24 oz water
Meal Five- 6-oz pork tenderloin, 1 cup brown rice, 6-oz sweet potato, 1 cup peas, 24 oz water
Meal Six- 10 egg whites, scrambled, 3 servings cream of rice or 1 cup oatmeal, 24 oz water

Sample Low Carb Day

Meal One-Meal replacement shake (40 grams protein, 25 grams carbs, 5 grams fat)
Meal Two- 6 ounces of turkey, 5 egg whites, and 2 multigrain pancakes with one tablespoon of natual peanut butter.
Meal Three-Chicken Caeser Salad, 6 ounces New York strip steak, and a half-cup of steamed broccoli.
Meal Four- 2 filet mignon steaks, and a half-cup of steamed broccoli.
Meal Five-Protein shake with peanut butter.
Meal Six-Sashimi feast (tuna, shrimp, eel yellowfish, salmon)

Daily Nutritional Priorities

- Eat at least 270 grams of protein per day (at a body weight of 265)
- Drop daily carbohydrate intake in the late afternoon and early evening.
- Consume at least 2-3 gallons of water per day.
- Daily supplementation includes multivitimans, antioxidants, joint formulations, ZMA and glutamine
- Once a week have a cheat day. The Rock's cheat day is all about doughnuts and pizza- and diet coke, which he jokingly says "balances out" all the fat calories from his favorite cheat foods. "One of my many mottos is, "Don't cheat yourself, treat yourself," he adds.

The post count count means nothing - I'm a long time EF member. I just came here to see what Mr X. has been up to and update on my CKD. You are in the 200 hundreds - good job, I could post useless junk like this all day long too to bump up my count. Like I said, no offence - you started jumping and turning it into a flame session when all I said was to stay on topic.

Can we act like civilised adults, please? This not how you go around commanding respect. And again, refering to your other 9 or so posts, please stay on topic.

[Bubba]

Im with you on this one DJLegacy. I wasn't going to say anything but this forum is for all diets of any kind. CKD,MKD,TKD,Atkins,Susan Summers??,ect..you name it.

[DJLegacy2k1]

Yeah thanks, Plus I wasnt telling anyone to follow this, or to try it. I just thought it was an interesting read that I found on The Rock/Dwayne Johnson's website. It is a DIET/Workout plan, so why not share it, if people want to read it they can...

Stop complaining about, "ITS NOT CKD"...Goofballs, it's a DIET FORUM not a CKD forum, if thats the case, we'd have to get rid of the ANPB DIET, and the BULKING DIETS, and the TKD DIETS, out of this forum.

Make sure when you BS someone, that you know what your talking about, Thanks
