While he struggled with depression for three months, he sought advice from the seven-time Mr. Olympia. The response to that became viral on social media, for a long time. There comes a day in everyone’s lives when a small moment would change the course of their lives. Ali had that enlightenment from the great Schwarzenegger.

Arnold Schwarzenegger makes a difference in Ali’s life

He spoke to the BBC about how he was depressed and laid down in his bed for three months. After months of struggling with mental health, he decided to send a message to Arnold. He requested Arnold to motivate him to get out of his bed. He convinced himself to get out of his bed and go work out if Arnold messaged him. Breaking the ice in Arnold’s fashion, he replied to Ali and gave him the motivation he needed.

“I’m not going to be hard on you. Please don’t be that hard on yourself. We all go through challenges, we all go through failure. Sometimes life is a workout. But the key thing is you get up. Just move a little. Roll out of bed and do some pushups or go for a walk. Just do something. One step at a time, I hope you feel better and get back to the gym. But don’t beat yourself up, because that’s just useless talk. It doesn’t get you closer to the gym. And don’t be afraid to ask for help. Good luck,” said Schwarzenegger.
