Munster’s leap into professional bodybuilding promises to be a thrilling chapter in his already impressive career. As he embarks on this new challenge, all eyes will be on Munster to see the “crazy package” he delivers when he steps onto the competitive stage later this year. Despite Baena praising Munster for his ambitious decision, recently, his career choice has also sparked conversation among experts.

What career path would be suitable for Joseph Baena?

Bodybuilding experts Victor Martinez and Vlad Yudin recently discussed Baena’s career prospects in a video shared on Generation Iron’s Instagram. Yudin pointed out, “Hany Rambod, I think he might be training Arnold’s son,” suggesting serious consideration for Baena’s aspirations. Martinez also chimed in, noting, “He has the physique to compete. He’s got Arnold’s genetics,” with a humorous nod towards Baena’s potential in movies too.

Meanwhile, Yudin raised concerns about the inevitable comparisons and critiques Baena might face in any profession he chooses. He acknowledged, “If he becomes a bodybuilder, they’re going to say the same thing.” Martinez also expressed confidence in Schwarzenegger’s supportive role, saying, “I think Arnold is smart enough to just kind of support his son,” indicating a balanced approach to nurturing Baena’s interests without pressuring him.

It would be interesting to see which path he chooses—would it be bodybuilding, like Munster, acting, or something else? Fans eagerly want him to start competing soon due to his super-jacked physique. Do you think Joseph Baena will also announce his preparation for professional bodybuilding, like Johny Munster, anytime soon?
