Fans have pointed out in comments under his posts that his fitness progress is remarkable — and, we couldn’t agree more. Additionally, one person in the comments of his latest post noted that Joseph teaches “master” fitness classes. In a reply, Joseph added that he teaches “shreds” classes.
Joseph’s go-to gym is Zoo Culture, which is located in Woodland Hills, CA — a neighborhood in Los Angeles. He’s shared many Instagram photos and videos inside the the gym, where he admittedly enjoys training with a partner, instead of solo.In this May 20, 1977 photo, Arnold Schwarzenegger shows off his body for a beach audience in Cannes, France, ahead of his film “Pumping Iron” at the Cannes Film Festival.

In 1970, at age 23, he won his first “Mr. Olympia” title in New York. The annual event is a professional men’s bodybuilding contest that is held annually by the International Federation of BodyBuilding & Fitness (IFBB). Arnold would go on to win the coveted title a total of seven times. It was his muscular figure, combined with his acting talents, of course, that helped Arnold score prominent movie roles through the years including, The Terminator (and its many sequels), Predator,Commando and many more.
