EP77 Arnold: The Education of a Bodybuilder

This week, we continue our journey with Arnold by learning how he rose to the top of the bodybuilding world in only an 8 year span!!

As a 15 year old kid in Austria, Arnold wasn't on anybody's radar to become the next bodybuilding sensation. Certainly no one thought he would become the Mr. Universe champion as a teen... yet his unbreakable self confidence and relentless work ethic just catapulted him to the top that much quicker than all his peers.

This episode is filled with gold, from Arnold's inspiring mentality, to how he was able to differentiate himself from other greats, to his actual lifting routines that you and I can adopt today. I highly recommend you listen - whether you are someone going for greatness in your own field, or simply want a little inspiration for your next workout. Enjoy!
