The Internet has been drooling all over pictures of Dwayne Johnson and Zac Efron killing it with their beach workouts. And if you still haven’t seen it then wake up and smell the muscle! Although, The Rock has forever been romanticized with muscle and power, Efron has never been seen in such a ripped avatar before. And we’re talking Dwayne Johnson level ripped.


From the lean and chocolaty Troy Bolton to the muscled hunk in Baywatch, here’s the regime that transformed Efron into the mean machine that he is.

Zac confessed in a statement of having undergone several months of training. The Neighbors actor stepped up his fitness game and took it outside the gym with tough routines like tire flipping.

Detox Diet

The actor even let fans in on his diet. He took to Twitter and revealed his strict sugar and carbohydrate detox. “9 days of absolutely zero carbs & sugar. Only organic grass fed/free range protein and organic leafy greens,” he wrote.

Although he was quick to add that “this lead to” a cheat day with an impressive menu! “Devoured a steak, 4 side potatoes/veggies, mac n cheese, 3 desserts, bread/butter, brick o cheese & caviar,” he said.
