Arnold Schwarzenegger gets heartfelt birthday wish from daughter Katherine, vows to make people fit
Los Angeles, July 31
Arnold Schwarzenegger received the sweetest birthday wishes from his daughter Katherine Schwarzenegger as he turned 79.
On Friday, the actor's daughter took to her Instagram, and shared a series of throwback pictures with her father, and her family.
She wrote in the caption, "Happy Birthday, Dad. So lucky you're ours... and even luckier our kids get you as Opa".
The actor also took to his Instagram, and spoke about his crusade to make people fitness. The actor said that he is ready to take financial loss in order to make people' fit.
He wrote in the caption, "I turn 79 today. I don't want any gifts. Instead, my team and I are turning the fitness industry upside down. Here it is. From today through Sunday, August 9, join the Pump Club app and complete four workout programs in your first year, and you pay nothing. Zero. Nada. Zilch. Sign up. Try it free for 7 days. Pay $100 for your first year. Complete four programs. Get $100 back automatically. $50 after your first, $50 after your fourth. No fine print. Show up, do the work, and your first year is free".
"'Arnold, I thought you were a good businessman'. I am. But the Pump Club is not backed by a private equity fund or a hedge fund. It's backed by me. This is a crusade, not just a business. I've been trying to get people to train for six decades, and I finally found something that works. If I can make millions of you train all year, I'll take the loss", he added.
Arnold Schwarzenegger is one of Hollywood's most iconic action stars, whose journey from a small Austrian town to global fame remains extraordinary. He revolutionised bodybuilding before becoming a blockbuster actor through films like The Terminator, Predator, Total Recall, and True Lies. Beyond entertainment, Schwarzenegger served as the Governor of California from 2003 to 2011, expanding his influence into politics.

The "Opa" part melted my heart! It's so sweet to see this big tough action hero being a softie for his grandkids. Family is everything, no matter how famous you are. God bless him! ❤️
Honestly, this free fitness app thing is a brilliant move. In India, gyms are expensive and many people can't afford personal trainers. I wish more celebrities used their wealth for such causes instead of just buying luxury stuff. Respect to Arnold!
"It's backed by me" - now that's a man who puts his money where his mouth is. We see so many celebrities endorsing products they don't even use, but Arnie is actually funding this himself. Amazing birthday commitment! 🎂
The Terminator making people fit... Ironic but brilliant! His journey from a small village in Austria to a global icon is truly inspiring. If he can stay so passionate at 79, we have no excuse for our laziness. Now excuse me while I go for a jog! 🏃
While I appreciate his fitness passion, I hope his app understands different body types and cultural contexts. Fitness in India isn't just about gym workouts - it's about yoga, traditional exercises too. Maybe he'll consider adding those in future! 🙏
