The Terminator actor denies resting at 75 and is on a sprint to promote his fitness newsletter, Arnold Pump Club. In his latest post, the Governator expressed his genuine thoughts about the fitness industry and claimed his newsletter to be unique.

The fitness industry boomed over the last few years as people started to focus on health and fitness. With the rise in demand for a perfect shape and good health, fitness trends and fads exploited the market. However, Arnie never fears speaking the truth. “Let’s be honest. There are a lot of shysters in health and fitness who have something to sell you,” he expressed his honest thoughts in his latest post. The ‘Predator’ icon, however, revealed his newsletter has a different agenda: “I started #ArnoldsPumpClub to cut through the bulls**t.

Further, the bodybuilding legend stressed that he is a constant in the fitness industry, unlike overnight fads. “Fads and trends come and go. Not me. I’ve been pumping people up for more than 50 years,” he retorted in his post with pictures of him working out in his prime and as a 75-year-old. The 4x Mr. Universe, Mike O’Hearn, stood with Arnie in his thoughts and called the 7x Mr.Olympia champion, “The Goat @schwarzenegger,” in comments. Earlier, the ‘American Gladiators’ recalled a pump-up session with the Austrian Oak that lighted up his spirits.
