Who needs a bathroom when you’ve got water bottles around? Well at least that’s the case with Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson as revealed in a recent video done with Esquie. He responded to a headline of him urinating in bottles saying, “Well, yeah, the headline is actually true, I do pee in my water bottles, but let me give context to that,” he said. “It’s not a water bottle that I’ve actually purchased solely for water that you wash and you clean when you’re done using it. These are just bottles that I’m no longer using.”
He went on to explain that the gyms he uses tend to be barebones and lacking bathrooms explaining his training ritual.. and that it isn’t simply because he enjoys doing it. “Usually the gyms that I work out in don’t have a bathroom, cause they’re the iron paradise and there’s no bathroom there, it’s just hot, sweaty and dirty,” he said. “I usually stay pretty hydrated and I have to go to the bathroom a lot. Not a lot but a couple times during every workout I have to go to the bathroom so I break out the bottle.”
He was asked about Kevin Hart and if they’ve worked out together to which he said, “Kevin and I have never worked out together. Look I would love to work out with Kevin, that would be a great workout. But the truth is, working out with me would not be good for Kevin’s ego,” Johnson said. “I mean it’s bad enough that when we get together people think he’s my little son that I ignore.”
And if you follow Dwayne Johnson on Instagram, then you’d know about his massive Sunday cheat meals. By the way, he once had 12 pancakes, 4 pizzas and 21 brownies after 150 days of eating clean.
“I bring new meaning to the term ‘gluttony,’ ” he said. “I’m pretty disciplined throughout the week in terms of my working out and my diet, and when Sunday rolls around, it’s time to go to town. For example, this Sunday I had these amazing pineapple and coconut pancakes with pieces of dried pineapple inside the pancakes. Just the right amount of crunch to the pancakes, then I’ll have maybe burgers, and fries and some pasta. Sundays I go all out.”
One would think that it’s possible for Dwayne Johnson to get a gym to work out in to his liking or at least with functioning bathrooms but whatever works. Obviously the outcome is worth the sacrifice.
