"... Always there like a beacon in the pitch black. I have found the Iron to be my greatest friend. It never freaks out on me, never runs. Friends may come and go. But two hundred pounds is always two hundred pounds.”

First workout of 2026. Between June and December last year I’m down 40lbs, goal is to keep up that momentum this year. #Histgym #arnoldspumpclub @schwarzenegger.bsky.social @ketch.bsky.social
It has been a challenging 90 days! I feel slightly stronger. Baby steps are still forward progress.

@schwarzenegger.bsky.social @bornfitness.bsky.social @ketch.bsky.social #ArnoldsPumpClub #PumpClub First time breaking 10K kg in a long time. Legs are like rubber now 😂 but I did it!
@schwarzenegger.bsky.social @ketch.bsky.social @bornfitness.bsky.social #ArnoldsPumpClub #PumpClub This may be one of my better upper body workouts. It isn’t a PR or anything but I felt it, and pushed through. Can’t wait to feel this one in the morning!
@schwarzenegger.bsky.social @ketch.bsky.social @bornfitness.bsky.social #ArnoldsPumpClub #PumpClub Happy Sunday! This is my best in quite awhile. Looking forward to what’s next!
@schwarzenegger.bsky.social @ketch.bsky.social @bornfitness.bsky.social #ArnoldsPumpClub #PumpClub Trying out the gym that I’m automatically enrolled in through my job. Machines and free weights today!
@schwarzenegger.bsky.social @ketch.bsky.social @bornfitness.bsky.social #ArnoldsPumpClub #PumpClub I don’t know what got into me this morning, but that’s a huge day over day improvement!
@schwarzenegger.bsky.social @ketch.bsky.social @bornfitness.bsky.social #ArnoldsPumpClub #PumpClub Every day a little bit better
@schwarzenegger.bsky.social @ketch.bsky.social @bornfitness.bsky.social #ArnoldsPumpClub #PumpClub great workout today! Hope everyone are doing well today!
@schwarzenegger.bsky.social @ketch.bsky.social @bornfitness.bsky.social #ArnoldsPumpClub #PumpClub Celebrating my first week streak since returning to the village!
@schwarzenegger.bsky.social @ketch.bsky.social @bornfitness.bsky.social #ArnoldsPumpClub #PumpClub Happy Sunday everyone. Got a great morning workout in today. Keep pumping!
@schwarzenegger.bsky.social @ketch.bsky.social @bornfitness.bsky.social #ArnoldsPumpClub #PumpClub The happy to be back feeling is still there. Building back stronger one day at a time. Happy weekend everyone!
@schwarzenegger.bsky.social @ketch.bsky.social @bornfitness.bsky.social #ArnoldsPumpClub #PumpClub Great second day back in the village. Gradually bringing weight back up but not until the full range of motion is mastered.
@schwarzenegger.bsky.social @bornfitness.bsky.social @ketch.bsky.social #ArnoldsPumpClub #PumpClub Feels good to be back! Doesn’t seem like I lost much strength, but I definitely lost a lot of ego. Starting up again right where I can fully control full range of motion with effort.
My anxiety is eating me alive the last couple days, but I’m feeling a bit better now. #histgym #Arnoldspumpclub @schwarzenegger.bsky.social
That was some heavy lifting today, with a lot of reps. Phew. #histgym #arnoldspumpclub @schwarzenegger.bsky.social
Another nighttime lifting session, got it done though. #histgmy #arnoldspumpclub
@schwarzenegger.bsky.social
I don’t love lifting at night, but you gotta do what you gotta do. #Histgym #arnoldspumpclub @schwarzenegger.bsky.social
I don’t always like lifting at night, but man it is sometimes a great way to end the day. #histgym #arnoldspumpclub @schwarzenegger.bsky.social
Light work on Labor Day, more split squats and reverse lunges; lots of bodyweight stuff. Finishing up on the hike and then off to mom and dads for a Labor Day cookout. #Histgym #Arnoldspumpclub @schwarzenegger.bsky.social
Yard mowed, generator exercised, ride on the bike, lifting session, another hour on the bike. Phew. #Histgym #Arnoldspumpclub @schwarzenegger.bsky.social
