It is difficult to find another person who managed to achieve the same success in life as Arnold Schwarzenegger. Being a native of a small Austrian village, he was able to make a successful career as an athlete, actor, businessman and politician. Many would like to repeat his success. Therefore, they carefully study everything related to the name Arnold Schwarzenegger. Height, weight and its other parameters during the years of bodybuilding and after are especially interesting to his fans.
And, indeed, at the beginning of his career as a bodybuilder, he had the body of a real athlete. With a growth of 188 cm, its weight was then about 107 kg. But such parameters went to Schwarzenegger for a reason. Every day, from the age of 14, he trained at a local sports club. As a result of such intense training - by the age of 20 he managed to win all the tournaments in Europe. It was then that the decision was made to move to the United States in order to pursue the career of a bodybuilder and gain recognition in America. As
Arnold Schwarzenegger himself believed
, the height, weight and figure of an athlete will allow him to quickly succeed.
But not everything went as smoothly as a future militant star would like. Poor knowledge of English and the semi-legal status of the emigrant did not contribute to the rapid development of a career. But despite this, in 1970 he won his first title, Mr. Olympia. After 5 years, Arnold will decide to end his sports career, but to this day he does a lot for the development of bodybuilding.
At this time, following the example of his idols, he attempts to act in films. True, a new occupation required new efforts. It was necessary to even outwardly change his body to such a pitching as Arnold Schwarzenegger. The height, weight and mountain of muscles did not look natural on the movie screen. And then he reduced his weight to 80 kg, and the reliefs became more realistic. The first truly stellar role of Arnie was the image of Conan in the film "Conan the Barbarian." Then came the roles in the films Terminator, Remember All, Predator, and others that had become his hallmark.
But this seemed to him not enough. At some point, he decided to change his role as a militant hero to a comedian. This was not as easy as Schwarzenegger himself believed. Height, weight in such films is no longer as important as acting. And iron Arnie takes private lessons. So comedies with his participation appeared: “Twins”, “The Last Movie Hero”, “True Lies” and “Junior”. True, he did not achieve recognition from critics.
In 2003, after the release of the movie "Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines," the actor was elected
governor of California. So began his career as a politician. True, after a resounding victory in the elections, great successes in the governor’s chair were not achieved. Unfortunately, Arnold Schwarzenegger did not become a successful politician. The weight of his arguments is still small in this area. In 2011, he left this post, leaving California not in the best condition, and returned to filming a movie.
And today, at 66, he is actively acting as the heroes of the militants. In 2013, 2 films with his participation were released, in 2014 another 3 premieres are planned. And, most likely, this is not his last film work. And true to his motto, “Stay Hungry,” he will surely delight his fans with new roles in both the cinema and in the life of Arnold Schwarzenegger. The height, weight and appearance of this giant are no longer important to anyone when watching movies with his participation.
