Arnold Schwarzenegger has achieved quite a lot in his life — from being the world's greatest bodybuilder to becoming an A-list actor in Hollywood to being Governor of California — but nothing is reportedly giving him more pride than the career path that his 21-year-old son, Joseph Baena, has chosen.

According to Hollywood Life, Arnold is ecstatic that Joseph, his son from his fling with former housekeeper Mildred Patricia, is following in his footsteps through bodybuilding, acting, and more. The fact that they now both work out together at the same Gold's Gym in Venice, California, that Arnold toiled in to achieve his incredible award-winning physique is said to be a source of great joy for the 71-year-old.
