“Never Said You Should Be a Bodybuilder”: Arnold Schwarzenegger Son Reveals Father Being Flexible With His Career Choices

The name Arnold Schwarzenegger needs no formal introduction. A man of many talents, Arnold never misses a chance to make headlines. Whether his professional feats or personal life controversies, Arnold makes the headline.

But this time, it’s not him that took the reader’s attention. Joseph Baena’s interview with Bradley Martyn is now making the rounds.

Too much pressure to be Arnold’s son?

Contrary to popular belief,  Baena didn’t always have a passion for fitness as he now has. Born out of wedlock, the young star kid is the spitting image of his father. Baena shares the confidence that fitness has given him. In the interview, he also acknowledges the pressure he has to face because he is the son of legendary bodybuilder Schwarzenegger.

Speaking his heart out, Baena confessed how he got into fitness, even though his father never encouraged him to do so. He adds, “I wouldn’t say it’s a huge pressure that everyone has put on me. I could do whatever I want. No one has pushed me into bodybuilding. My dad never said you should be a bodybuilder.”

A proud son to a legendary father, Baena is deeply influenced by the ace Hollywood actor Arnold Schwarzenegger.
