Arnold Schwarzenegger enlightens fans with his 9-minute abs workout
The Terminator star is often considered the greatest bodybuilder of all time. Following his sheer dominance in the Men's Open category on the Mr. Olympia stage, Arnold decided to change the face of bodybuilding. His first docuseries Pumping Iron was a major success back then.
Arnold Schwarzenegger started the daily newsletter, The Pump Daily, to enlighten his fans about the various aspects of bodybuilding. He shares daily advice to help readers achieve better fitness.
In the latest edition of The Pump Daily, Arnold shared the facts about a nine-minute abs workout. He wrote,
"Research suggests 9 minutes of intense bodyweight training could improve heart health and leg strength."
Arnold Schwarzenegger added in writing,
"The study examined a workout consisting of just 5 exercises. The participants alternated between 1 minute of high-intensity bodyweight movements and 1 minute of walking in place."
Later on, Arnold Schwarzenegger talked about an estimated time to see results after testing on certain numbers of volunteers. He wrote,
"After six weeks (3 workouts per week), the volunteers improved their endurance, lower body power, and markers associated with cardiovascular health. Even more impressive? Compliance was 100 percent, meaning everyone was able to complete all the workouts. This is extremely rare in fitness studies, but a good sign that anyone can find time for a super short workout."
In the same newsletter, Arnold also revealed the science of lab-grown meat and its exciting facts. He was also excited to see what the future holds.
"If you haven't heard about it, scientists are working on changing the way we create meat. The theory is simple: instead of killing millions of animals and stressing the environment, lab grown meat is made by extracting cells—such as stem, muscle, and fat cells — from animals and turning those cells into amazing tasting meat."
Arnold Schwarzenegger also mentioned that these lab-grown meats theoretically help the cells get the required nutrients and time to grow within weeks.
