Regardless, something special about the compilation was the audio. Baena had attached a dialogue from the movie Nacho Libre, that acted as a positive affirmation against the hardcore workout. The caption under the video stated, “The thoughts running through my head when I train in the mornings.”

The audio described how the speaker’s life was doing well, and their daily routine made them happy. The phrase, “But my life is good! Really good!” chimed in as Baena pulled himself up the bars. This is how the star spends his mornings every day and evidently feels fantastic about it. However, being compared to his father while working out and also, in general, makes the star feel intimidated sometimes, and Baena even confessed his fears once.

The pressure of being compared to Arnold Schwarzenegger

Superstar Arnold Schwarzenegger had cut out his own space in the bodybuilding world, Hollywood, and the political space. Juggling multiple roles and acing at all of them is a feat in itself. Therefore, when Joseph Baena rose to popularity, a hiccup in his journey was the comparison between him and his father.

In 2022, the rising star revealed how it was scary to get compared to a bodybuilding giant like his father. The pressure of living up to fans’ expectations was intimidating. However, Baena still managed to pick a niche for himself and trudge on his path. And while fans still compare him with his father, they recognize him for his unique talents.
