John Cena was born and bred in Massachusetts, the second eldest of four male siblings. Since a young age, Cena was fascinated with bodybuilding and took up the sport in his late high school years at a private boarding school. He later studied exercise physiology at Springfield College, graduated and moved to Los Angeles to pursue a career in in the sport, working as a security guard and limo driver to make ends meet.
To many of the gym junkies dieting when weight training, there’s a disclaimer to following Cena’s diet regime: it’s somewhat bland — but that doesn’t mean you can’t switch it up a bit. Describe as being “heavy on protein, light on flavour” by MensHealth, the seven-meal a day diet comes to an estimated total of 3,600 calories, comprising 450 grams of carbs, 290 grams of protein and 65 grams of fat. The diet he’s constructed is to replenish the body after his gruelling workout sessions. The Cenation Leader’s diet plan provides all the daily dietary requirements of clean meats, fruits, vegetables, grains & cereals and supplements.
For a man whose catchphrase is “you can’t see me”, his brawny physique and athleticism can’t be overlooked. The secret to his aesthetically insane body is the fusion of challenging training sessions that he completes five days a week. And despite the longstanding impression that it’s thanks to his genetic edge that he’s that well-built; interestingly, before taking up weights, the 251 pounds (114 kg) WWE heavyweight was a measly 120 pounds (54 kg) in high school.
