IFBB Pro bodybuilding and coach Greg Doucette has been a vocal critic of Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson. The veteran bodybuilder reiterated his complaints about Johnson after a recent video by YouTuber Sunny V2 went viral. Sunny V2 video featured Doucette’s complaints of the 52-year-old being a fake natural bodybuilder and athlete.
Sunny V2’s video didn’t just focus on The Rock being a fake natty and the recent downturn on social media. The YouTuber theorized that the People’s Champion may have been lying about everything from natural bodybuilding to dieting and training. So Greg Doucette explained why he believes The Rock is not natural.
The Rock once confessed that he did do ste***ds but hadn’t “touched them since he was 18.” The Black Adam star also added to his statement by hitting out at doubters like Greg Doucette. Some people “will suspect and say sh*t,” said The Rock. However, Doucette disagreed. “I mean look at your physique why not at least be honest,” said Doucette.
Coach Greg highlighted how the World’s Strongest Man winner, Eddie Hall, has commented on The Rock being on HRT. However, the IFBB Pro explained that he agrees more with Joe Rogan, who believes that the Hollywood action star uses other substances as well. Doucette believes the 52-year-old is too jacked for his age to be natural.
The formerly enhanced bodybuilder is on HRT (Hormone Replacement Therapy). HRT is a prescribed treatment that helps people maintain their natural hormone balance. However, Doucette believes that The Rock carries too much muscle at 52, far beyond what HRT/TRT would enable him to attain. However, Doucette took Johnson’s side on one argument in the Sunny V2 video.
Greg Doucette could relate to The Rock
Although the fitness influencer believes The Rock to be a fake natty, he disagrees with the public backlash of Johnson promoting his brands. The WWE star has multiple brands and collaborates with other brands. However, he often has to advertise these products on social media. Fans have complained about his brand placements as well.
However, Coach Greg took the WWE icon’s side. The IFBB Pro often advertises his bands in his social media content and saw no issues with The Rock doing the same. He also doesn’t think that brand placements are as egregious as hiding the truth about ste***ds and how many calories he eats.
Greg Doucette was among the first people to call out The Rock for hiding the use of PEDs. The former powerlifter believes that Doucette is giving people the wrong impression of what natural bodybuilding beyond 50 looks like.
