The Terminator star didn’t achieve his biceps through any fancy supplements, expensive equipment, or special techniques. It is something that anyone can accomplish with a pair of dumbbells and a strong determination. The Terminator actor’s muscular physique is the result of years of hard work and unwavering dedication. Even though he has not pursued active bodybuilding competitions in the last fifty years, he never let go of his passion for fitness. 

The FUBAR star maintains a training routine that includes a well-rounded mix of cardio exercises, resistance training, and stretching. Additionally, he pays attention to his nutrition by consuming enough protein to support muscle growth and recovery. He stays updated on the research regarding aging and exercise, sharing valuable insights with his followers through his Pump Club newsletter.

In his recent one, Schwarzenegger brought attention to a study published by Age (Dordr) which demonstrated the positive impact of strength training on the well-being and health of older individuals. The research involved 24 participants aged 90 and above divided into two groups. One group engaged in strength training while the other group did not participate in any training.

The findings showed that the first group decreased their risk of falls and increased muscle power and strength compared to the second one. Schwarzenegger stands as an example, supported by scientific evidence that demonstrates the possibility of developing muscle and maintaining fitness regardless of age. In his words, The more you do something, the better you get at it.”.
