[Credit: Giphy]( Itâs been over 50 years since Arnold Schwarzenegger burst onto the bodybuilding scene, and heâs still one of the most talked about and beloved athletes to ever strap on a pair of posing trunks. The Austrian Oakâs high-volume lifting style, in particular, is still a go-to methodology for gymgoers around the world. That said, sticking to his actual workout split is rare. If you think you love lifting as much as young Arnold, and if you want to try to match his determination, this split will challenge even the most focused lifter (and if you canât make it through a session, weâve got you covered with ways to modify it for mere mortals). Though Arnoldâs high-volume, high-frequency approach seems too intense to be real, trust us, this is the genuine article. Learn all about Schwarzeneggerâs workout split below and see if you can adapt it for your own goals. [Train Like Arnold]( Contest Getaway Giveaway!

[Enter to Win Here!]( Challenges Styles Clash Credit: Mitchell Hooper In a bit of a âman bites dogâ moment, strongman Mitchell Hooper, ever on the hunt to expand his horizons, takes on the chest workout of breakout YouTube fitness star Sam Sulek. Hooper, who has never met a workout he wouldnât try, remains one of the strongest men in the world despite not being able to defend his Worldâs Strongest Man title a few weeks back. Sulek, for his part, has won over fans the world over with his unbridled enthusiasm for lifting (even if it was the downfall of literary figure Billy Mumphrey). How will Hooper fare in Sulekâs world of isolating muscle groups to failure? Will he survive in a jungle of cable machines with nary an Atlas stone or circus dumbbell in sight? Only one way to find out.
