Standing at 6’2″ and weighing 235 pounds, Arnold Schwarzenegger is a legendary bodybuilder. Even at the age of 74, he has a certain aura about himself that is hardly seen by other men his age. From a stunning bodybuilder, he became an actor and a politician. But, in the bodybuilding competitions is where he shines. He won seven Mr. Olympia titles and is one of the best to ever do it.

The secret to his success?

Eating healthy and having workouts that only some can master. In his autobiography named ‘Encyclopedia of Modern Bodybuilding,’ he revealed how he focused on his body parts twice a week. This made him one of the best, as these workout routines are incredible.

Arnold’s workouts were designed strictly to focus on this. Here are his rigorous schedules:
