Arnold Schwarzenegger is 74-years-young!

The legendary actor got a special shoutout from his 23-year-old son, Joseph Baena, on Friday, July 30. Joe shared a cool photo of himself and his muscular father toasting in a restaurant. Baena appeared to be drinking tea or coffee, but Arnold went fully healthy and sipped on a green drink. Schwarzenegger wore a plain dark shirt, but Baena had a funny "Bar-Barian" shirt with a figure resembling Conan.

"Happy Birthday Dad! I hope your pump was juicy and may your day be filled with lots of schnitzel, schnapps and stogies!!!" Arnold's body-building son wrote alongside the smiling photo.

Arnold has yet to respond, but he is probably busy enjoying his birthday offline. The iconic actor posted yesterday about how all his pets were preventing him from finishing his computer work so he could enjoy his special day.

"Getting some help finishing up my newsletter so I can send it out to celebrate my birthday tomorrow," he joked in the caption of his post.

Arnold's Tough On Joe In The Gym

Generally, the actor is a big teddy bear.. until you get him in the gym! Joe revealed that Arnold came down hard on him when they worked out together at Gold's Gym back in May. They posed for a masked-up selfie, but Baena said his famous father was all business after the camera was put away.

"This selfie was taken moments before my dad suggested I do 'forced reps' for the rest of the workout. You have to go all out and absolutely NO cheating when you train with him, so you know I’m going to be hurting tomorrow. Overloading on the rows, bench press, pull downs, etc... thankfully my studly training partner helped me get every last rep. This is another great approach to training and a fantastic way to build size and strength! Try it out with your training partner ?," Joe wrote at the time.

Looking forward to growing and learning from my amazing team @aria_properties, but more so looking forward to putting you guys in a new home! I’ll be primarily based in West LA and Silicon Beach, so if you’re buying, selling or need help shoot me a DM."

Baena graduated from Pepperdine University on April 27, 2019. Arnold was a very proud papa that day.
