Joseph Baena, the son of the legendary seven-time Mr. Olympia Arnold Schwarzenegger, is a stickler for the fitness industry. Baena often drops fitness updates on his Instagram, and has even taken to trying out different training methods as well. The Austrian Oak’s son has been following functional training for a while and recently showcased his immense gains after switching from the traditional approach.

A few hours earlier, Baena posted on his Instagram, a series of pictures of his insane posing routine, making his fans reminisce about the Terminator’s prime era. But what poses did the 26-year-old perform?

Baena gives his pictures the retro treatment

In the pictures, Baena displayed his aesthetic physique and emulated a few poses that the Austrian Oak did in the past. He started by doing a three-quarter front bicep pose and showcasing his symmetrical biceps. Baena’s small waist complemented his upper body. On the other hand, Arnie is famous for performing this pose and showcasing his mountain-like biceps. 

The next pose the fitness enthusiast hit was the legendary pose the Terminator is known for, the archer pose. This pose displayed Baena’s well-built back, and the detailing matched the standards set by Arnie. The last pose he did was the rear lat and bicep pose, displaying all the hard work he has put in to sculpt his aesthetic physique.
