While comparisons to his father are inevitable, Baena’s journey hasn’t been without its challenges. Despite now showcasing an elite-level physique, he previously revealed that fitness didn’t always come naturally. “People sometimes forget that I used to be chubby in high school. I got cut from my basketball and soccer team because I couldn’t keep up with the other kids,” he shared in a past post. “Swim didn’t have tryouts thankfully and completely changed my life forever.”
Now, he’s training alongside one of the most iconic figures in bodybuilding history. Schwarzenegger, a seven-time Mr. Olympia winner, has been spotted working out with his son in recent weeks, with Baena even sharing a classic piece of advice from his dad: “You have to shock the muscles!”
Schwarzenegger shares Baena with Mildred Patricia “Patty” Baena, while also having four children with ex-wife Maria Shriver.
