Arnold Schwarzenegger has inspired many generations of bodybuilders. However, there has been one instance when the legend himself was stunned after seeing the strength of a female weightlifter. The Austrian Oak was awestruck as the lady beat a bunch of professional male bodybuilders.

In his latest newsletter, Schwarzenegger came across a question where a female fan asked him to give some female-centric content. The first name that came to the legend’s mind was Sarah Reasoner, the firefighter.

The Austrian Oak recalled the time when he first saw Sarah during the first edition of the World’s Strongest firefighter event. However, it was her exceptional performance at the event that got her the legend’s attention. The Terminator seems to be a huge fan of Sarah’s attitude as he wrote, “I have a ba**ss woman for you”.

He further recalled the display of immense strength and courage as the inaugural Firefighter event witnessed a woman beating a bunch of male professional weightlifters. Though she failed to win the contest, everyone present there became her fans. “She placed fifth, but the crowd loved her more than anyone.” Arnold wrote.

Even the seven-time Mr. Olympia was highly impressed by her performance. He further went and had a word with her after the event. I reached out to get some inspiration,” he wrote in the newsletter. The Terminator also informed the readers that Sarah is also a subscriber to his newsletter. However, this was not the only highlight of his newsletter.

Arnold’s newsletter is often divided into two parts. First, where he motivates people and puts forward his own views about any current situation. Second, where he answers the question of fans. Recently, Schwarzenegger discarded a widely spread misconception related to diet and workouts.  A fan asked him about the time gap that one should maintain between eating and working out. 

Arnold, known for his interesting replies, had a unique way to start while answering the question. He wrote, “First of all, Travis, you forehead, you can pick up the phone and FaceTime me”. He further debunked all such theories and said that the body doesn’t care about time.
