Arnold Schwarzenegger might be the coolest 76-year-old celebrity show business has. Fans who follow him on social media might agree without giving it a second thought. The action legend goes hand in hand with all the trends and keeps his followers engaged with new posts. In this world of Gen-Z, The Terminator actor gives tough competition to young people with motivational Pump Club and his own Reddit threads. But do you know how this superstar manages his social media presence? Or what is his technology secret?

Back in 2021, the eldest son of the former bodybuilder, Patrick Schwarzenegger, made an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live. During the conversation, the guest host asked him whether his mom texts him more or his dad. In his response, the American actor revealed his father does not have a phone. Apparently, the Austrian Oak does not like texting and only talks to people on FaceTime through his iPad.

Instead of buying some cool smartphone, he still uses the mobile that the actor bought decades ago. “It’s like this brick phone that’s like this big, flips open. He can call, like, 0-9 or 0-8. He’s got these speed dials memorized,” disclosed Patrick. It might be unbelievable for his fans, considering how he regularly remains active over the internet.

Just a few days back, the 76-year-old posted a video of himself pumping veins alongside Ronnie Coleman. Not to mention, his list of fans has been constantly growing with people joining his fitness revolution.
