In “The Family Stallone,” Sophia Stallone shared that she was confused about why her dad, Sylvester Stallone, thought they still needed training. “When you’re raised by someone whose entire identity is being the biggest badass in the world, I knew how to run faster, hit harder than anybody else in their grade,” she explained. Meanwhile, Sistine Stallone pointed out that she always carried a miniature knife in her shoe, similar to the one her dad sent her to school with.
However, Sly clearly didn’t think they were prepared to take on New York, so off they went to training camp. Sophia’s training started on the way to the self-defense camp because the “Rocky” actor put a blindfold over her eyes. He then asked her to pretend she had been kidnapped and asked her to identify where they were headed based on the direction the car was heading in. As the sisters walked into camp, they were messing about to ease the tension, but their dad told them to get real and take it seriously.
Their training regimen started with boxing and self-defense and ended with them trying to catch chickens, a cheeky reference to “Rocky II.” They also had their mental endurance tested with an ice bath and included what the trainer believed to be some practical New Yorker skills like carrying 60 pounds uphill. Although Sylvester was impressed by Sophia’s self-defense skills, he was a little disappointed in Sistine because he felt like she was flirting with the instructor, which turned out to be true.
