For decades, people have looked to Arnold Schwarzenegger's body as a symbol of strength and resilience. But as a new documentary reveals, the five-time Mr. Universe champion never thought it was good enough.
") is a"chronic dissatisfaction with one's muscularity and the perception that one's body is inadequate and undesirable, although objective observers would disagree with such an assessment."
"Body dissatisfaction is when someone is dissatisfied with various aspects of body size, shape, weight or specific body parts," he says."This is relatively common. In fact, U.S. studies estimate that 25% to 60% of U.S. teens experience body dissatisfaction," and over"It’s most prevalent in people whose physique is held to dangerously high standards, Nagata adds.
"I wanted to show that in the early stages of Arnold's career, bodybuilding was still an obscure sport that had not yet hit the mainstream, and was also pre-fitness revolution," she explains. To achieve that, the director pulled"unused footage and outtakes" from the 1977 weightlifting documentary. In one particular scene from that footage, a young Schwarzenegger and his friends are shown weightlifting on a public California beach as onlookers gaze with fascination.
The beach scene, as innocent as it might seem to viewers, is reflective of the unique pressure society places on fitness models and influencers to"maintain perfection,""Bodybuilders are constantly comparing their bodies with others at competitions and on social media, particularly people who they perceive as more muscular," he says."They can often set unattainably high muscularity goals for their bodies and feel dissatisfied until they reach those standards.
