Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson doesn’t mess around when lifting weights at his Iron Paradise gym. In a recent offering shared via Instagram on October 17, 2024, The Rock showed off his go-to back exercise — the dumbbell seal row, which serves as a simple and highly effective movement for muscle building.

As a Pro wrestling star and phenom, the world listens when The Rock discusses his favorite workouts. He sports an unbelievably monstrous physique, which he’s fine-tuned over the years with countless training sessions and a calculated diet (even if he does splash in a cheat meal here and there). 

Having amassed a huge following across all social media platforms, The Rock continues to give back to the fans who turned him into a worldwide star. His efforts far exceed the ring, as The Rock has also carved out a mega-successful acting career, appearing in the Fast & Furious franchise, Rampage, and the Jumanji franchise.

He implements four sets in the 10-12 rep-range, utilizing two-second holds to reap maximum benefits.

10-12 reps

The Rock operates within an incredibly busy schedule, which is on brand for the international movie star. He recently joined the prolific entrepreneur Patrick Bet-David to discuss almost buying the Mr. Olympia brand back when it was up for sale. Ultimately, they sold to Jake Wood, who has represented the company and sport with pride over the last several years. 

Back exercises offer unique challenges because most of the time, lifters cannot see it while training. Nevertheless, it’s essential to build a well-rounded physique complete with an impressive posterior chain. The next time you head to the gym, give The Rock’s go-to seal rows a try!
