Arnold Schwarzenegger has indeed been one of the biggest pioneers in the world of bodybuilding. He has not only changed the entire spectrum of the sport, but has also helped a lot of talented individuals to come under the limelight and create magic in the realm. The legendary bodybuilder, who is also known as the Michael Jackson of bodybuilding was one among them, whom Arnold Schwarzenegger discovered on the beach and turned him into what he is today.

Well, on one hand, it was already existing legends like Arnie, and on the other hand, it was motivation from his bosom friends to hit the gym and help them acquire better aesthetics that helped Tony Pearson. However, despite the detailed knowledge about the sport, Pearson had a rather weak point, that was recently unraveled by one of his friends.

Fabio Lanzoni helped Tony Pearson with girls

The official YouTube page of Generation Iron Fitness Network shared a snippet of their interview with Fabio Lanzoni, where he spoke about the intense training sessions he had with his dear friend Tony Pearson. Being one of the most decorated models, it is a rather ardent task for Lanzoni to be perfect, and well, to add to the bonus, he enjoys working out, especially when it comes to training with Tony Pearson.

Well, while Tony Pearson helped him get better at the gym, he helped him with something that he was not great at – girls, as he was a rather shy person. Fabio said, “He was giving me tips on working out and you know I always helped him out with women. Like I say, he was very gentle and very shy.”
