Arnold Schwarzenegger believes that consistency and routine are a key to achieving a quality life and his son Joseph Baena follows his father’s footsteps with dedication. Baena regularly trains at Gold’s Gym in Venice Beach and posts his workout photos to keep his followers updated with his progress in the gym.
Most recently, Joseph Baena posted shirtless photos on his Instagram account and asked his followers to give him costume ideas for this Halloween. Baena showed off his chiseled physique in different bodybuilding poses which were reminiscent of some of Arnold Schwarzenegger’s most iconic photos.
“Bet you can’t guess my Halloween costume this year! (I don’t actually have one but I need ideas).” Joseph Baena wrote in the caption.
Baena’s post drew some funny reactions from his followers in the comments section. Author and Entrepreneur Philip Schulte suggested Baena dress as NutriBullet, referring to Baena’s gains.
“You’re going to be a NutriBullet because you’ve clearly been downing shakes.” Philip commented.
Musician Albert Ambrose, popularly known as Ambrxse, suggested Baena dress as Hulk Hogan this Halloween in the comment.
“Hulk Hogan.” Abrxse wrote.
Like most of us, Joseph Baena was forced to work out at home in 2020. This year, however, Baena returned to the gym with his father. Looking at the 23-year-old’s Instagram account, it seems that he is working hard to make up for the time lost due to Covid-imposed lockdown.
Joseph Baena’s new career and lifestyle change
Joseph Baena has inherited Arnold Schwarzenegger’s love for bodybuilding and has shown interest in competing as a professional bodybuilder in the past. However,Baena announced earlier this year that he had started a new career as a realtor and he currently works with his team Aria Properties. The 23-year-old primarily posted workout and gym photos on Instagram where he recreated some of Arnold’s most iconic poses. However, Baena’s recent Instagram posts shed light on a new busy routine that is vastly different from his life before.
“Hard hats Neon Jackets Big calves Updating my client on their new home!” Joseph Baena wrote.
Back in June, the 23-year-old posted a carousel of photos capturing moments from a busy week. The post included a trademark shirtless gym photo, a short video of the grappling session and the time spent catching up on Work and Play in Los Angeles. Courtesy to Joseph Baena’s Instagram account, you can watch the post here:
“A busy week full of hard work and good fun. Let’s keep it going!” Joseph Baena wrote in the caption.
With all due respect, if he weren’t Arnold’s son he would not get this attention, especially not as a bodybuilder. He is nowhere near what Arnold was at his age and is certainly not competition quality at this point. Maybe at some point he will, but going gaga over Joe now, especially on a site like this, makes no sense.
