Talk about massive flex appeal.
Arnold Schwarzenegger’s son Joseph Baena went viral on Instagram Monday after the 22-year-old bodybuilder shared a video of himself flexing for his 564,000 followers.
In the video, Baena is seen wearing a black tank top, gray sweatpants, white socks and slip-on Vans before ripping off his shirt and giving viewers a look at his ripped body.
Baena’s video, which has scored almost 13,648 likes, is synced to a voiceover from former bodybuilder Frank Zane explaining how the building of muscle is a sport.
“When you’re training, it’s competition,” Zane says in the clip. “It’s a sport when you train.”
Captioned “competing with myself to be better everyday,” several of the hunk’s followers praised Baena’s dedication to fitness.
“Wow some of the best genes on the planet! Keep going brotha,” one fan thirsted.
“Get this guy a role as young Conan! A prequel! He is perfect! Just will have to work in the voice,” a second fan exclaimed referring to the 1982 film.
“Truly admire your discipline and dedication,” a third user praised.
“We gonna have another Terminator,” a fourth user wrote, poking fun at his father’s successful movie franchise.
Baena also posted a series of snaps at a museum dedicated to his father as well as a shirtless photo of himself flexing in front of an Schwarzenegger statue.
“It’s not a trip to Austria without visiting the @arnoldschwarzeneggermuseum right,” he captioned the pictures.
The muscled hunk was thrust into the spotlight after Netflix released a documentary about Schwarzenegger, 76.
In the three-part series “Arnold,” the former California governor detailed his affair with his housekeeper Mildred Baena, which resulted in Joseph’s birth.
A trailer for the series showed the moment the “Terminator” star confessed the boy’s true parentage to his ex-wife, Maria Shriver.
“She wants to know if you’re the father of Joseph,” a counselor in 2011 asked the former movie star.
“I thought my heart stopped,” said the ex-politician. “And then I told the truth.”
“Yes, Maria. Joseph is my son,” Schwarzenegger replied — noting that his then-wife “was obviously crushed by that.”
Initially, Schwarzenegger had denied that Baena was his son because his mother was still married at the time.
“In the beginning, I really didn’t know,” explained Schwarzenegger. “But the older he got, the more it became clear to me.
“It was then just a matter of, ‘How do you keep this quiet,’ ” he continued.
Despite having a close relationship with his father, Baena says that he does not have any relationship with his half-siblings.
