The Rock looks in impressive condition while performing weighted dips.
Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson recently performed an epic arm day in the gym including some impressive weighted dips. The popular star thrashed his triceps as performed the movement with impeccable technique.
The ability to achieve greatness, to make progress and become your best self, isn’t something that can be done overnight. It takes countless hours, countless days, a supreme amount of dedication, and the willingness to fall down on your face and get back up every time. It can be as simple as achieving small victories consistently over time that can see help person become their best selves. This is what we see out of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.
Before he was the popular actor and entrepreneur that he is today, The Rock start out with his own unique struggles. Before he became a WWE wrestling superstar, The Rock was on track to becoming an NFL football player. But like so many plans of bright eyed young folk, it wasn’t meant to be. But his failure to become an NFL star led him to becoming the man that he is today. Who is that exactly? It’s a man who consistently looks to improve himself day after day. This speaks to the rock as both an entertainer and as an athlete.
Epic Triceps Training
A recent training video of The Rock showcases the talented actor and entrepreneur performing weighted dips. It is certainly a difficult exercise to perform, but like most other things, the rock tackles it with a certain level of intensity mixed with humility.
Saturday night.
Burnin’ the midnight oil.
The chip on this shoulder never goes away.
The Rock is just a man. A well-built, athletic, multifaceted and talented man, but a man nonetheless. Yet he is able to perform these difficult tasks and make them look easy. It’s not that the tasks themselves are easy, but that The Rock is able to consistently push himself to get into the gym and do the things that many others won’t. It’s that consistency that has allowed him to become one of the most popular figures in the world today and a world class athlete even into his 40s.
This was another of many feats that the rock has been able to accomplish over the course of his career as an athlete. Perhaps what makes these training sessions so Epic is the fact that the rock isn’t shy about pushing himself in a way many actors wouldn’t. With all that money, fame, and success it would be easy for him to get lazy, complacent, and rest on his laurels. Instead, The Rock continues to push himself and you can’t help but be motivated by that.
