Ever since his newsletter, Pump Daily, gained some traction among the audience, Schwarzenegger has been spreading the idea of positivity surrounding workouts. He usually individually tweets at people, answering questions or just encouraging them to take a step further towards healthier living. However, his streak of positivity was marred by a follower who questioned his ways of getting fit.
While interacting with some of his fans, he came across a tweet that attributed his fitness to his financial status. Currently, Schwarzenegger is worth about $450 million, and the person figured that it was easy to get fit if one were monetarily sound like the star. However, the Austrian Oak was quick to notice this criticism. Instead of getting annoyed, however, the star had a gentle and fitting response.
In the gym, everyone was equal. In Schwarzenegger’s experience, equipment wouldn’t change according to a person’s bank balance. And this is the advice he stuck with while responding to the hater’s jab. He quipped, “The weights don’t care who you are. 200 pounds is 200 pounds…”
Money does make a lot of things in life easier. That’s why I love the gym. The weights don’t care who you are. 200 pounds is 200 pounds no matter what number you see in your bank account. https://t.co/UlgpS4ipfn
