Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson recently debuted into the superhero genre with DCU’s Black Adam where he played the titular anti-hero. Apart from his extensive acting career, he is also widely known since his WWE days. The physique he has still maintained at the age of fifty is quite commendable, especially since he has never used any kind of enhancing drugs, or so he says.

Dwayne Johnson has over 350 million followers on Instagram, that is, over 350 million people see him share photos and videos of him working out and showing off his incredible physique. However, recently Joe Rogan revealed that he believes the physique isn’t just the result of an insane training regime and strict discipline.

Does Dwayne Johnson Take Steroids?

In the latest episode of The Joe Rogan Experience, host Joe Rogan was joined by Youtuber Derek of More Plates More Dates and the two discussed Dwayne Johnson’s physique which he claims is achieved without any supplement use. This comes after Liver King recently admitted to using steroids for building his body, which he earlier denied. Rogan stated that Johnson “should come clean right now” adding that there’s no chance he is clean.

“The Rock should come clean right now. He should make a video in response to the Liver King video like, ‘I need to talk to you because The Rock has been lying.’ There’s not a f***ing chance in hell he’s clean, not a chance in hell as big as The Rock is at 50.”

Derek talked about how Johnson says time and again that longevity is his number one priority yet his decisions have been contradicting his claims, including the recent superhero role. He added that to him it looks like Johnson isn’t too focused on longevity as he says, instead he’s all about how much he can milk his brand at the moment.

Rogan stated that he doesn’t even believe that The Rock achieved his physique through Hormone Replacement Therapy. To this Derek added that Johnson was a “genetic marvel” even when he was all-natural while in his twenties. He stated that drug use was “obvious” since Johnson appears to be in way better form now than he was in his younger years.

Joe Rogan Talks About a Celebrity’s Responsibility

The host of the extremely popular podcast continued on, putting Johnson on blast with his words saying that when there are people listening, it is the responsibility of the one speaking to be honest with their audience. He stated that while it’s okay if you don’t want to talk about it, it is a whole other thing when you lie. Rogan added that he, personally, doesn’t think there is anything wrong with taking Hormone Replacement, since he also does. In fact, he called it “smart” and stated that he felt much better and healthier than before.

“I don’t think there’s anything wrong with taking Hormone Replacement, I think it’s actually wise, I think it’s healthier, I feel way better than I did before I was doing it….I don’t think it’s wrong, I think it’s smart. But you got to be honest.”

So while Rogan and Derek have no problem with Johnson being on the juice, they certainly don’t feel he should be lying about it, that is if he does take supplements to enhance his physique. Johnson on the other hand has claimed that he had only taken steroids once in his life, that too back in college. Johnson, in an interview with Fortune, stated that apart from the time in college, he has led a steroid-free life, adding that people who find this dubious are simply negating the hard work he has done.
