The son of the legendary Arnold Schwarzenegger, 28-year-old Joseph Baena, has officially proven that the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.
Details: According to The Independent, the young athlete made a triumphant entrance into the world of professional bodybuilding, competing at the prestigious NPC Natural tournament in Colorado. And what a debut it was: Baena didn’t just step onto the stage—he dominated multiple categories, taking home a stunning three gold medals.
This success is the result of months of grueling preparation, with none other than “The Austrian Oak” himself playing an active role. In the run-up to the competition, Joseph repeatedly shared footage of joint training sessions with his father.
The elder Schwarzenegger personally coached his son in posing secrets and muscle-building techniques—lessons that clearly paid off on the Colorado stage.
