When a Reddit user asked the ‘Austrian Oak’ about his comfort level sharing his private life against the person he presented to the world, the actor felt obligated to reply. 

Using his Arnold Pump Club, the Commando actor revealed that he does not like to conceal musk in his private life. Despite being a ‘Fitness God,’ he is not in favor of hiding his bad habits but being honest to the fans and subscribers.

Answering the Redditor the actor said, “I am pretty much the same me, all the time. So it’s natural. The goofiness you see in interviews? Me. The strategy do you see in Pumping Iron? Also me.” 

Arnold Schwarzenegger also explained the reason straight, the actor believes that it’s not very wise to hide bad habits, projecting a different image to the public could “gets you in trouble.” 

“It’s why when I got asked if I smoked pot when I ran for office,” admitting the fact the actor said,  “‘Yes, and I did inhale.’ It’s why I smoke stogies even though I’m a fitness guy. I don’t want to lie to you.” Schwarzenegger also said that the sudden emergence of hidden truth could land someone in trouble.

Apart from smoking pot and his weakness for different varieties of cigars, the actor has some other habits as well. Schwarzenegger also admitted relishing occasional alcoholic beverages, mostly his seem-to-be favorite tequila and schnapps. 

Schwarzenegger was in the buzz when he combined healthy and unhealthy ingredients to create a recipe out of these unique combinations. One recipe he shared with the fans was adding alcohol to his protein shake. “I add a little bit of schnapps or tequila- tequila is also good,” the actor said. In another, he dripped cigars in tequila before smoking them. Reportedly, Schwarzenegger still offers tequila-dipped cigars to some of his guests.
