We already know that The Rock is big as hell. His movie and wrestling careers have achieved more success than anyone could ever dream of. He has done non-action movies at his size and it is remarkable.

Pain and Gain: Coming to theaters soon is his new movie where he teams up with Mark Wahlberg to play a couple of bodybuilders.

What did The Rock do to get even BIGGER?

Well, according to MuscleandStrength.com, The Rock went through 150 days of natural cleansing without cheating once. His reward:

Round One: 12 pancakes
Round Two: 4 double dough pepperoni pizzas
Round Three: 21 brownies with a huge mug of milk
Holy crap. That sounds like the greatest meal, but I would not go 150 days without junk just to eat all that.

Okay, back to his workout routine. The Rock maintained a 7-day workout plan that went as followed:

Monday – Shoulder
Tuesday -Back
Wednesday – Off
Thursday – Legs
Friday – Arms
Saturday – Chest
Sunday – Off

Compared to Wahlberg, this is your more traditional split, targeting one body part in each gym session. The days of rest are spread apart during the week. This would be an ideal beginners split for any newbie that is looking to mimic a celebrity as big as The Rock.

While this workout routine may seem like a lot to do, I have done splits, such as this one, and have been out of the gym within an hour or a little more. It does not take a very long time to finish five or six exercises.
