Joseph Baena, the youngest child of Arnold Schwarzenegger, shares many things in common with his legendary bodybuilder father. Just like Schwarzenegger, Baena regularly works out in the gym with passion.

The 25-year-old has always worked hard to do justice to his genetic potential, but lately, the actor has made some incredible progress. And his latest update blew away the fans.

Earlier, Jo Baena uploaded two images on his Instagram account. In the post-workout pictures, the seven-time Mr. Olympia winner’s son flaunted his physique. Fans of both Schwarzenegger and Baena couldn’t help but compare the young actor to his father. They also wanted to see him in his father’s 1982 on-screen avatar.
