Recently, fitness influencer Bradley Martyn inaugurated a swanky new gym and invited many fitness trainers, influencers, and celebrities over. Joseph Baena was one of them. The real estate agent and reality show star is blessed with his father, Arnold Schwarzenegger’s genes, and is a fitness enthusiast. Given how the star has been meaning to explore various avenues in bodybuilding, he works out often.
His recent video shot at Martyn’s new gym – Zoo Culture – showed off his jacked arms and well-defined back. As Baena flexed his muscles while performing a few sets of lat pulldowns, he had a question for his fellow fitness enthusiasts. Accompanying the video was an audio of a popular wrestler from the 80s. Baena wondered if other gym-goers had the same voice in their head while working out.
The voice belonged to the iconic professional wrestler, ‘Macho Man’ Randy Savage. The star rose to fame after his stints in the World Wrestling Federation and World Championship Wrestling. His fans remembered him for his eccentric persona and troubled relationship with champion wrestler Hulk Hogan. Paying his tribute to the legend, Baena added one of his iconic soundbites to his video.
