"Everybody assumes that when he came to America he trained under
the trainer of champions, Joe Weider. Nothing could be further from
the truth.
Weider just promoted Arnold and made a lot of money. Actually they
both promoted each other and made a lot of money. Arnold's German
industrial sponsor sent him to Vince.
Of course, Arnold had a pretty big ego, although he was not that good
when he started, being rather on the fat, fleshy side. He walked into
Vince's Gym (John Balik, the editor of IRONMAN can substantiate this
story as he was standing right there) and said, "I'm Arnold
Schwarzennegger from Austria and I'm Mr. So and So."
Vince looked up at him through his granny glasses and responded,
"You're nothing but a fat you-know-what." For two years, Arnold
spent time at Vince's Gym Then, after Joe Weider signed him, he went
on to become a movie star and multi-millionaire.
Years later, Arnold told Balik that was the best thing that ever
happened to him because he thought he was king of the world and
Vince brought him right down, shattered his ego. That about sums up
Vince and says a lot for Arnold."
