Christopher Schwarzenegger said hasta la vista to his old physique.
Arnold Schwarzenegger’s son flaunted his inspiring body transformation while out in Malibu on Friday.
The 27-year-old — whose mom is Maria Shriver — appeared slimmed-down, wearing a navy crewneck, white joggers and gray sneakers.
The businessman accessorized with a University of Michigan baseball hat — his alma mater — and a watch.
Christopher has been vocal about his weight loss journey over the past few years.
Last May, he spoke out about the weight loss transformation while attending Beacher Vitality’s Happy & Healthy Summit in Los Angeles.
“It was a big process,” Christopher said during a panel, per People, explaining that he began modifying his lifestyle when he was living in Australia back in 2019.
“I just saw how much my weight was prohibiting me from doing the everyday activities,” he shared with the panel — which included Kelly Osbourne, who has had a drastic physical transformation of her own.
“I was like, ‘I want to go skydiving,’” Christopher recalled. “And my friends were like, ‘Yeah, no shot,’” to which he agreed.
He added, “I was like, ‘Yeah, I can’t skydive.’”
Christopher also divulged that his body image issues stretched back to high school. “I tried everything,” he admitted at the time, adding that he was “doing meal delivery things in high school.”
He shared with the crowd that he remembered “feeling like a weirdo when I was bringing weird lunches to school.”
Christopher also noted that his gradual weight loss was “not an overnight thing,” explaining that it “took a lot of trial and error.” A fitness regimen and diet changes were among his strategies for an overall healthier lifestyle.
Christopher also “gave up bread for Lent” — which lasts 40 days — and lost “30 pounds just through that.”
He also reflected on “before and after photos” of his physical changes.
“I don’t feel like I’m an ‘after’ yet,” he confessed.
Now, Christopher’s lifestyle is mimicking that of his father, 78.
The bodybuilder won the Mr. Olympia title six times from 1970 to 1975 before briefly retiring.
Arnold then returned and won his final title in 1980.
