He said he picked up over johns shoulders once and didnt even feel him budge. Perfectly stable and in control like a rock. He felt perfectly safe.

      WTF? Thought Cena was like 10 years younger at least.
      I stopped watching wrestling basically right when he started to show up.
      Always felt like he was the new gen wrestler. Couldn't understand why people liked him with the few clips I did see.
      Then... I saw interviews with him maybe ten years after that. Not his wrestling persona.
      Man is charismatic as hell! One of the celebs I definitely was wrong about. Top 5 best famous people hands down that is the real deal for sure. He actually has integrity, and uses his fame for good.
      Oh, and his sense of humor is top notch. Can make a douche like Peacemaker likable.

      Cena has spent basically his entire life as a good to great form bodybuilder. The Rock played many years of high level football, which involves a lot more physical trauma to the body and likely included a lot of explosive movement lifting, which is what was emphasized in the 80s and 90s.

    Did you ever see some of the weight that Joe Kovacs and Ryan Crouser have put up doing squats? Wondering how their technique looks

    I realized how strong he really is when he started working out and made some videos with Mike Bell a few years ago. He has legitimate powerlifting strength.

    My knees have a problem when I squat. Either that, or I lose balance. In order to get balance, I really have to open my l3gs wide
