Arnold Schwarzenegger Biceps

Arnold Schwarzenegger – He’s been named the Austrian Oak, The Terminator, John Matrix, Mr. Freeze, The Governator, and to many of his fans just Arnie. Not only is he known as one of the greatest bodybuilders in history, but also as an action movie star, and an American politician.

Arnold began his journey after seeing the iconic idol Reg Park appearing as Hercules. This, Arnold says, “is when I saw the entire plan laid out before me.”

Being “the figurehead” and “the golden boy” of the “golden era,” Arnold brought bodybuilding to the mainstream. He soon appeared on the big screen, commercials, magazines, and advertisements across the entire country.

In later years, he has been known for bringing equality and equal rights to the forefront of political campaigns, fighting for environmental issues and social reformation. His one-liners, humor (on and off the stage) and larger than life personality continue to echo through the minds of fans around the world to this day. If there was ever a poster child for the American dream, Arnold’s the one.
