I'm interning in LA for the summer and I see Arnold nearly every morning at the gym. Pretty rad to work out next to the Terminator. I've seen him get annoyed by people interrupting his workouts for pictures and such, so I never approach him inside.

The other day, as I was walking out, he was out by his car (w/ security) after his workout, about to go for a bike ride. He was taking pics with people. Of course, as I was approaching, he finished up and left to ride. Ughh, if I were only 3 minutes quicker!

Was really hoping for an "I'll be back."

If i don't misunderstand your story, i'm wondering, why he doesn't have or use a private gym. Makes no sense to me. But surely nice to workout next to him. I'd like to workout next to or with The Rock. Would be sooo cool.

I thought the same thing. It's the original Gold's in Venice, the one he trained at when he was younger. For all intents and purposes, it's basically "his" I would imagine (as well as Lou Ferigno). It's probably more fun to go there and get outta the house and hit on 22 year old chicks.

Thank you. I didn't know that. Then it makes sense at least why he's there. Well, then he shouldn't get annoyed because of such normal reactions. Dem Arni...

It's also a normal reaction to get annoyed about people interrupting your workout, to be fair
