The Rock Reveals the Diet That Got Him Shredded for Black Adam

How The Rock ate to get shredded for Black Adam role.
Black Adam is clearly a passion project for Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. He pushed his body to the absolute limit in order to portray this iconic DC Comics character. He not only put in some serious training, but he also modified his diet in order to get into shredded condition.


The Rock has documented most of his training for the film. It’s clear that his physique has become truly impressive to behold. That said, it takes more than lifting to get into such incredible shape. It also takes adhering to a well constructed diet.
In a recent video, The Rock revealed the diet he’s been on in order to get and remain shredded for Black Adam.

This coming week is a big one – our final week of production for the filming of BLACK ADAM??
All the training, the diet?, with Covid it’s been 2 years of character, story and production prep and it all culminates to next week.
Here’s a look at my breakfast/
Sodium pulled.
Water limited.
Flank, egg whites, brown rice and blueberries
Dialing all the conditioning in as we save the hardest scenes for last.
Appreciate you guys so much for all the BLACK ADAM support – I think we’re making a movie and creating a universe that’s definitive, unique, bad ass and cool.
Fingers crossed ?? we bring it on home strong next week.
Stay disciplined, focused and trust in the process.
And shovel it all in and drink it all down ?





It’s clear that The Rock has been very disciplined in his approach to his diet. In order to stay in optimal condition the actor had to stick to his strict regimen while training to maintain his heavily muscled frame. While it may seem like a simple task to train, eat right, and read your lines, the reality is that The Rock had to essentially perform like an athlete.

Doesn’t look like much, but here’s my Saturday night post leg training meal/
ground tenderloin, brown rice with broccoli ? & pineapple?(for digestion ?)
With 8oz-10oz of water.
All my 6 meals per day are strictly measured out – including water and sodium – as we go into our final three weeks of production for the filming of BLACK ADAM.
Commit, push all chips in and do your best to trust the process ??







While it may have been an acting role, The Rock essentially needed to be a high level athlete to bring the character of Black Adam to life. He needed to push his body to places he never had to before. That is truly saying something for someone who has played high level football and performed as a professional wrestler. It really must have been a tall task, The Rock admitting that himself.
The Rock was truly in the best shape of his life for this film. It will be interesting to see how Black Adam turns out.
