Previously shedding light on his struggle with aging, 75-year-old Arnie shared that he feels utterly disappointed with the current state of his physique. His iconic frame is wrinkled, and his stomach sticks out. He just can’t stand to look at himself in the mirror. “It’s terrible!” the former athlete said of his physique. 

Whereas his eldest son, who is on the verge of entering his 30s, was bothered to find a single white hair on his chest. He wrote in the Twitter post, “I found a white chest hair.” Hinting at his feelings on the issue, the 29-year-old star chipped in with “Smfh,” a slang term in the modern generation. It is an abbreviation for “Shaking my f*****g head,” which implies a state of shock or disagreement.
