Arnold Schwarzenegger is arguably one of the biggest names in the bodybuilding world. Even though it has been years since Schwarzenegger left the powerful sport, his contributions to the sport remain incredible. And the way Schwarzenegger keeps his followers motivated to do better in life is nothing but exceptional. However, now that Arnold is enjoying his life in his 70s, his son with Mildred Baena, Joseph Baena, has taken a step forward as a fitness influencer. In his latest social media update, Baena posted a shoulder training video. Arnold’s son gave out the shoulder workouts to attain a proper shoulder shape by training every muscle that creates it.

However, as he mentions “Standing Arnold Press” in his post’s caption, passionate bodybuilding fans gently corrected him by suggesting that he should call it “Dad Press”. Let us have a look at Baena’s shoulder workout, and how fans reacted to it.
