Arnold Schwarzenegger teaches the importance of moving forward

In the Arnold’s Pump Club newsletter published on 25th August, the Austrian Oak counseled a user on his exercise progress. Michael was worried about his lack of headway in the gym training program. He asked, “Is it normal /common/ or at least something everyone experiences in some way to suck at one specific exercise while being able to do all the other?” Further, the worried “village” member informed Arnie of his struggle with chin-ups. 

On reading the question, one word stood out to the insightful bodybuilder. He said,” Why the hell are you saying you suck?” Additionally, the Fubar actor appreciated Michael for moving from one to five chin-ups. The bodybuilding juggernaut highlighted that even incremental improvements are also worth celebrating. The suggestions underscore the importance of not underestimating oneself, as it can hinder efforts. Moreover, in the cacophony of myriad unsolicited advice, an instructor like Schwarzenegger helps people move on the right path. A few days ago, the 7x Mr Olympia had broached the topic of motivation in his esteemed newsletter.

Arnie unraveled the mystery behind the incentive to work hard. He opined it is not necessary to have lofty goals. Inspiration can come from the unlikeliest of places. For some, it could be getting out of bed at a designated time, but for others, it could be to look good. When Arnold was a young boy, he always did not think about being the best in the world.

“I’ll be honest. Sometimes when I started lifting weights, the goal of being Mr. Austria or Mr. Europe wasn’t enough for me,” quipped Arnie. Moreover, he would think about the teacher who chastised the young boy from Thal and called him a “neanderthal.” 

“Every time I got on the tram to go to the stadium in Graz, I saw him telling me I’d never amount to anything.” It became the motivating factor for the Predator hero to push himself further. Eventually, the Austrian Oak became the master of the game. He would move mountains to etch his name in the history of not just one career but three.
