As best I can find, Dwayne Johnson is about 6'3" and somewhere around 240lbs (his height & weight are often overstated for marketing reasons). If you look at pictures from his football & wrestling days, he's smooth... but in his movie years he becomes fairly cut/ripped. Maybe 10% BF.

But if you google his diet, he eats like 6 meals a day every 2 hours for about 5000 calories total daily.

So how is he able to eat so much, yet stay so lean?

I guess the first thing you guys will say is "south pacific genetics" with lots of natural Test and GH... but as this point in his life they should have declined. Maybe he's now getting it exogeniously?

And what about BMR/TDEE? I'm sure all that time he spends lifting probably burns a lot of calories, and that much muscle mass burns a lot of calories just to maintain itself.

The reason I'm asking is that I've tried IF & keto myself and getting to 10% BF has been really difficult.. I can't imagine doing that while eating 6 meals a day.

Can someone explain a little how he's able to do that? How this all works?
