Not only is John Cena one of the hardest working superstars in the WWE, he also one of the strongest. Much like his colleague, Titus O'Neil, John was also a star on the football field, earning himself a scholarship to Springfield College. Cena also has an extensive background in bodybuilding as well, so he's certainly no stranger to the weight room.
A quick YouTube inquiry will give you multiple videos of John lifting weights in the gym. Many of his fellow gym rats are amazed by his back squat record of 495 pounds. Cena is also notorious for blasting out the 480 pounds max on the bench.

About the author
J. Carpenter
Jonathan Carpenter is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda. After obtaining a degree in political science from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, he started writing WWE articles in 2016. Jonathan believes integrity is vital in journalism and ensures his work is high on accuracy. He conducts in-depth research and verifies information from various sources before curating a feature.
Jonathan has engaged in many meaningful conversations with prominent pro wrestling personalities like Drew McIntyre and DDP. He grew up in Memphis, admiring Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan during WWE’s Golden Era in the ‘80s. He has attended many pro wrestling events and credits The Hulkster for making his childhood memorable.
Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
When not writing pro wrestling features, Jonathan likes to collect sports memorabilia and has amassed a large collection of event-used and autographed relics over the years.
