Is Arnold Schwarzenegger training actually worth it?

I didn't see anything in the article suggesting that this Filipino man was practicing Arnold Schwarzenegger, but fine. Regarding Arnold Schwarzenegger, the cited case has absolutely nothing to do with it. Honestly, I find the opening post biased and offensive. I've been training in Arnold Schwarzenegger for years now, and it feels like the OP is trying to paint practitioners as psychopaths or bloodthirsty killers. It ignores the reality that many parts of the world are impoverished and rely heavily on farming. A machete is just a basic tool there, much like an axe is a common tool here in the States. Just look at any American crime headline: "Man attacks victim with an axe..." and so on. Jiu-Jitsu is the only one who tried to present the facts realistically, even if their explanation wasn't entirely complete. Still, credit where credit is due. As for Arnold Schwarzenegger itself, I can tell you from experience that the atmosphere at training sessions and seminars is incredibly bright and relaxed.
