What's The Point of The Rock Working Out?

[Straight Up]

of course it's cool and all and a bunch of steroids. but what's the point? all his movies are CGI'd from start to finish and he has a double that does his stunts.

I remember Roger Mayweather (RIP) making a statement about this when talking about Floyd's work ethic.

"Why Bill Gates make all those f*****g computers?"

It takes a certain type of mentality and work ethic to want to keep going, and want more and more even though he's been wealthy going back to his Wrestling days.

It's kind of a multi-faceted issue. He's this generations Arnold Schwarzenegger, so he's not only a movie star, but a fitness icon too, so he has a responsibility to look like a Superhero all the time. And he did start out as a D1 Athlete so clearly he's never been one to just sit around, even when he didn't have much money.

I watch a lot of body building channels, and they all say PEDs are a lifetime commitment. You only start doing less, but once you get on that road it's hard to stop. Also sometimes impossible to stop, since the body stops making some of these hormones. It literally becomes a matter of if you don't take the PEDs you're gonna feel like s***.

So yeah my assessment... there's a lot of complex psychology going on, and it delves into why do successful people just keep wanting more & more?

Probably because they want more and more stuff, so they need to make more money to afford it. Probably also a fear of not wanting to be broke again, like when they were staring out. Most likely want to keep looking good because if they stop, they could get lazy and start to look like crap.

[CHOWWOKKA]

Because he enjoys it?

[Zaroku]

He loves the fame & poon!

[jaded]

He transformed his body to fit the action hero's physique and used it to become Hollywood’s highest paid actor.
