Arnold Schwarzenegger leads a life of inspiration. He profoundly impacted bodybuilding, films, and politics during his career span. He is celebrated by the masses, for his unparalleled aura and larger-than-life image. As much as people are inspired by his fitness journey, they are also attracted to his big cigars, a constant in his life.

His profound impact on his followers was proved again when a fan wouldn’t want to give up on smoking after watching Arnie’s cigar-smoking style in his new video. However, The ‘Austrian Oak’ motivated his follower to keep up with her quitting process and not get influenced by his unhealthy smoking habit.

The ‘Pumping Iron’ star shared a workout video to promote his newsletter, Arnold’s Pump Club. The 75-year-old shared a video where he was seen doing a stretch workout on a white table. He spread his legs wide apart and touched his toes on either side for maximum stretch. But he soon revealed his prank to his audiences as the stretched legs were dummies, and Arnie was faking them as his real legs all this while.

Apart from his prank, his followers also fell in love with his mannerism in the video. The Governator was smoking a cigar in the workout video like a pro. It didn’t go unnoticed by his fans. A fan found it so inspiring that she wrote, “Still quitting smoking but it feels like I have a really good excuse not to after yesterday,” in the comments section of the post.

The Terminator actor, however, was quick to correct the woman’s thoughts. He replied to her comment, “You can do this. Don’t listen to your negative thoughts. It will get easier,” motivating her. Despite multiple heart surgeries, the ‘FUBAR’ actor never called it quits when it came to smoking. But he ensured that his fans were not influenced by his bad habit, by putting his perspective out there. Earlier, he revealed how he got into the habit of smoking.

After that, the 75-year-old never left smoking despite being critically ill a few times. Even his ex-wife couldn’t stop him from smoking, as it was her father who introduced the True Lies star to cigars.
