Arnold Schwarzenegger Named Executive Editor Of 2 Body Building Magazines

Mar 5, 2013, 08:30 IST
GettyArnold Schwarzenegger can add "editor" to his already varied resumé.
The body builder-turned-actor-turned-politician will now serve as executive editor of Muscle & Fitness and Flex magazines, American Media Inc. announced. “It was in these magazines that I found the spark that inspired me to start lifting weights, and eventually move to America and realize my dreams, and I’m proud to return as executive editor,” said Schwarzenegger in a statement.

“Bodybuilding has always been part of my life," he added. "I know Muscle & Fitness and Flex will continue to motivate others - as it did me - to lift weights and lead a healthy lifestyle, promote the sport of bodybuilding, and, as Joe used to say in every issue, 'exceed themselves.'"

Schwarzenegger, who will become group executive editor and a monthly columnist for the mags, briefly held the same position a decade ago.

But shortly after winning his gubernatorial election, he resigned amid criticism that there would be a conflict of interest given the publications’ dependence on advertising for dietary supplements and the governor’s role in regulating the industry.

But now the former body building champ who has appeared on the magazines’ covers more than 60 times is back.
