“I Ate 7 Times A Day For More Than 20 Weeks To Prepare For My Role As Hercules”- The Rock

Johnson posted the details of the aptly named “12 Labors Diet” on his Instagram page, and said he followed the diet “full on” for 22 weeks.

 

“It’s about getting enough protein to aid lean muscle growth, and everything is very precisely measured depending on what targets I’m looking to hit for that day,” Johnson said. “Lots of protein, good carbs, and veggies. Nutrition is so important, it can’t be stressed enough.”

 

If you follow Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson on Instagram, you are constantly treated to photos of his muscles bulging out from all over the place.

The WWE-superstar-turned-actor revealed the insane diet behind his current physique with an Instagram post on Sunday.

According to Johnson, this is what he ate every day for six months while training for his starring role in "Hercules," which opens on July 24.
