Arnold Schwarzenegger announced his step challenge only two days ago in his daily newsletter, Arnold Pump Club. The bodybuilder had told people how he likes to move every hour and that keeps him much more healthy. However, the 77-year-old bodybuilder also asks his fans if they have what it takes to participate in his new step-challenge.

Schwarzenegger has asked people to include 1000 more steps in their daily routine. And now that he has added a video of his pet pig joining him in the same challenge, he tries his best to motivate people to follow his lead, as it might have many benefits.

In his latest Instagram post, Schwarzenegger shared a video where he was seen walking ahead while his pet pig, Schnelly, with its small feet, follows the bodybuilder. In the wake of his step challenge, even Schwarzenegger’s most beloved animals showed much enthusiasm. The bodybuilder wrote in his captions, “Nothing like a Tuesday morning walk with my Schnelly!”

 

Moreover, Schwarzenegger also implored people to join his challenge to improve one’s health. He said, “Join me in my challenge – sign up for the newsletter, and shoot for raising your daily step average by 1,000 steps.” He had previously explained, “A lifetime in the gym has taught me that small progressions are the key to sustainable success.”

Schwarzenegger thus asked his followers that if they could accommodate 1000 steps more every single day, they could achieve something great. He stated, “Nothing crazy. I don’t want you to set a goal of 10,000 steps if you walk 3,000 today.” Instead, he said, “Just 1,000 steps more every day. Do whatever you have to do. Set a reminder on your phone.”

Fans were thrilled to encounter such a big move from Schnelly. They supported Schwarzenegger’s pet to no end.
