1. Bigger Traps
The Rock Trap’s are the dominant muscle groups and bigger in the size.
To develop such kind of Traps like Dwayne is impossible for the natural bodybuilders while juicers are more likely to experience the bigger traps.
It is due to the drugs because the upper body or shoulders are responding very first to the steroids.
2. Changes In The Skin
His skin looks darker. The dark skin is a result of steroid use because steroid can increase the internal temperature.
The natural mechanism of the body pushes out the excess amount of heat from the body in order to protect the internal organs.
The white men are more likely to develop the pink color of the skin while black men get the darker shades.
3. Skull
The shape of the skull appears larger and has a more square shape.
Usually, the growth of the skull is a sign of HGH.
Human Growth Hormone can cause the growth of bones.
The Rock does not have an appearance of all steroid signs in his body like his body is never spotted with acne.
There are many treatments that can remove this type of signs.
For example, use of anti-estrogen drugs to inhibit the gynecomastia and PCT (Post Cycle Therapy) during the steroid cycle.

The diet is incorporated with fiber, protein, carbohydrates, and vegetable sources.

You must concentrate on the workouts and avoid rest of the world while training.
The Rock Steroids
The possible steroids that he could have taken are:
There are different sources on the internet that thinks these steroids are probably included in The Rock steroid cycle.
Dwayne has definitely awesome genetics and the steroid use enhance the aesthetic.
Why testosterone? Because testosterone is responsible for the giant traps and huge muscle.
The HGH is responsible for developing the huge muscle and burn up the fat.
We mention HGH because it can increase the cranial and jaw muscle mass as well.
The stacking of HGH with Insulin can stimulate the growth of bones.
According to the experts and professionals, The Rock steroid cycle is based on the testosterone propionate 450mg, Primobolan 400mg, and Masteron 300mg.
Assumptions
He already accepted the steroid use for around 2 weeks when he was only 18 years old.
But, he never used again due to increase side effects.
We are not in the position to criticize someone for use of illegal drugs.
The physique like Dwayne Johnson is perfectly attainable for the natural bodybuilders but, it becomes easy for the steroid users in a short period of time.
The diet and exercises are enough to give the mind-blowing transformation.
It seems like that The Rock muscular physique, shredded and ripped Abs comes from the genes, diet, and working regimen.
