10 Surprising Jobs Brock Lesnar Did Outside Of WWE / UFC

8. Labourer For The REA Power Company

When starting out his college life at Bismarck State in North Dakota, Lesnar went home that summer to seek work. He didn't have much money, and his parents couldn't afford to help him out. So he took a job with the REA Power Company, working as a labourer. The advantage was, it would also help him to put on muscle. It was a physical job and he knew he'd be fitter for it. He says he packed his own lunch every day, then worked from eight in the morning to three in the afternoon. He was like a regular working class american. Then at five thirty, he'd head on over to the gym, pounding the weights every single night. Between the gym and the job, he went from 226 pounds to 258 pounds that summer.
