Arnold’s Pump Club is hands down one of the best fitness communities I’ve ever been a part of. It’s not just about workouts — it’s a full package of motivation, expert advice, and a no-nonsense approach to living a healthier, stronger life. The content is top-notch, blending science-backed fitness tips with Arnold’s signature humor and wisdom, making every email or post both educational and entertaining. What sets Arnold’s Pump Club apart is its focus on sustainability — it’s not about quick fixes, but building habits that last. Whether you’re a beginner looking for guidance or someone more experienced seeking inspiration, there’s something here for everyone. I’ve seen real progress in both my fitness and mindset since joining. It’s like having Arnold himself cheering you on every step of the way. Highly recommend to anyone who wants to take control of their health and fitness while feeling like part of a supportive, inspiring community!

Thank you Arnold for your podcast and newsletter. As a 68 year old woman who is learning how to get stronger in a new “aging” body, your advice has inspired and motivated me to lift just a little bit more each week. You have been in my life for many decades and now I love getting older & stronger with you having my back! Blue skies my friend. Kathy J anotheremptykitchen.com

Can’t recommend this podcast enough for fans of Arnold as well as people who want to better themselves. Listening to Arnold’s stories as well as the advice he gives has truly improved my life and showed me ways of being a better person in all aspects. Highly recommend giving it a listen.

Thank you Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger and Team. This podcast is so uplifting.

Thank you so much for being the champion we need more now than ever and having the courage to rise above and focus on what can be done rather than being a victim. This is a wonderful podcast, concise and to the point, delivered with empathy and tough love. Thank you Arnold.

I started bodybuilding and powerlifting in the late 80s. Of course I followed you intently at during those periods. Now that I am much older and facing many physical obstacles I so appreciate all of your uplifting commentaries and efforts to bring positivity to my life. I so respect that you do so much to help the environment and focusing on humanitarian justice, as well as all of us in our minds and bodies! Thank you for helping me through a very difficult time in my life, dealing with an extremely painful physical event that has left me temporarily disabled. - Fran

Great podcast, I really look forward to every one, the next one being even better than the late if that is even possible. Great information, great articles and so uplifting. Thank you Arnold and team.

Thank you Arnold for picking me up by the cerebral cortex and muscle fibers. Your philosophy and diligence in this project is the only thing in the digital world worth tampering with.

Great information with positive delivery. I love this podcast!

Profound inspiration in bite-sized pieces. Arnold really knows how to deliver. Btw, I’d love to learn how people with fibromyalgia can exercise without triggering flares. Thanks. 🏃‍♀️‍➡️🏋️‍♀️

I love how much useful information is shared in Arnold’s podcast, and I appreciate the positive approach.

I recently started listening to Arnold’s Pump Club and have really enjoyed it. Life and work has been stressful but this podcast has really helped me to stay positive. Thank you!

Love Arnold and his nuggets of wisdom. He’s such an optimistic grounded driven inspiration and he uses this great short format podcast to share some really helpful tips to improve your life and others.

Thank you for the uplifting and encouraging and informative messages that you take the time to share.

I love the fact that Arnold is creating this positive corner of the Internet. We all need to focus on our lives and our health in a sane and manageable way. There are so many health gurus out there and so much research, but this breaks it down easily and makes it all manageable and in the right order of operations. Regardless of the level you’re at: elite, moderate, or beginner, there are always great nuggets. I also love that this podcast is only a few minutes along. This short, sweet, and impactful podcast is great for time management to optimize results. The main message you will hear over and over again in various ways, which is so important, is “consistency” over “perfection.” Consistency really does trump everything else for lasting results. A little bit of a positive thing every day goes along way. Love Arnold’s “no excuses” mantra. Everyone’s got eight minutes a day to be uplifted, take one step, and apply some useful information. Thank you Arnold!!

I agree that there’s a lot of negativity online, and I deactivated and deleted all social media and news apps once I found Arnold’s Pump Club. It’s always playing when I’m driving or when I’m on my daily walk. It’s a cheerful daily snack throughout the day.

Thank you for keeping me on track ! I love to listen your podcast ! As in my middle 30ti s , I rediscovering my self again ! And Arnold is such inspiration to keep going forward ! And don’t be scared of failure ! Also I just finished the book Be Useful ! Thank you to all of you ! Big love , big hugs 💛 Petal

Arnold has great content with straightforward honesty. He is now on my ‘must listen’ list. A_good_day_to_have_a_good_day Susan

What a tremendous and uplifting podcast full of great information and inspiration for daily life from a guy that’s see and done it all. Thank you Arnold.

I love how much content Arnold packs into these short, less than 10 minute podcasts. They are completely approachable, interesting, motivating, and even keep the attention of my kids when I am listening in the car. I appreciate that even if they won’t listen to Mom telling them how to be healthy, they will listen to this show!

When will Arnold do his civic duty and endorse Kamala Harris?

So I ordered from Schaller and Weber because Arnold recommended it. My order came and all refrigerant was gone food was warm. Had to throw it out. Thought you should know. They don’t answer the phone and you can’t leave a message because message box is full. What a joke.

I was a little hesitant when I put on the first episode and heard that the voice we are hearing was actually that of an AI voice model trained on Schwarzenegger’s real voice. The reason I pressed play was because I wanted to hear Arnold talk and it felt inauthentic to take this approach, for lack of a better word, because if it wasn’t actually him then why should I listen? As I listened during the early days I could hear moments where the simulated voice made mistakes and lost the accent, but I kept listening because the episodes were short enough and I was interested in the information. And then something happened. I kept listening, more and more, everyday, and I’m almost caught up completely now. As I kept listening I heard the kinds of personal stories, anecdotes, and insights that I had signed up for. Whether it was really Arnold speaking, or even writing the script for the show, I was getting what I wanted out of it and I don’t think those kinds if things could be there without his input. Currently, I’m still listening everyday. Whether I’m at the gym, or in the car, the Pump Club has absolutely been a positive in my life. Of course there is a lot of great useful information on health, exercise, and nutrition that are worth my while, but the stuff about mindset, goals, attitude, ambition, and personal growth are just as valuable if not moreso. Whether it’s Arnold or the Terminator reading the script on the other end, the familiarity of the voice helps get the message across and the message is worthwhile. So, thank you Arnold, Adam, and Daniel for helping me and so many others!

Arnold I listen to your podcasts over and over each day on my walk and 3 times a week during my workout. You keep me engaged mentally with my exercise routine and lifestyle. Thank you for doing them. I’m 71 and am inspired by your positive corner of the internet. I’ve lost 50 lbs over the past 5 years. I’m shooting for another 10. Sharon Rossiter

Arnold is always saying that he wants to create the positive corner of the internet and according to my view, he is doing exactly that. This podcast is for everybody who wants a healthier, happier, fitter life. The 3 of them create the podcast that I listen to every day.

I just found this podcast. Have always respected Arnold’s legacy in bodybuilding and fitness. This is a wonderful quick, positive, scientific show! Love it.

I absolutely love these quick episodes that contain a golden nugget of inspiration, motivation, evidence based strategies, and practical tips. I’ve been a Registered Nurse for more than 32 years. I love Arnold’s balance of science and practice.

Thank you for this podcast. When I’m having doubts about the work I’m putting in and doubting if it’s all worthwhile this podcast motivates me to keep going. For me the inspiration is my favorite part but I also love the science research updates. Very grateful, thank you for the content.

This podcast inspires me to be a better version of myself every day. It gives you the opportunity to learn something new each episode, and challenges you to be honest with yourself.

Shares health stories to hawk products. Quote from his newsletter “those who…are always selling something to you — might not be the best source of information. It might be time to question what they’re trying to accomplish.” It’s nice hearing Arnold read it, but episodes posts a day after the morning email, making it a pointless podcast.
