Arnold Schwarzenegger, the Austrian bodybuilding icon and actor turned politician, warned against the US creating a “generation of wimps” and said to embrace struggle during an appearance on “The Howard Stern Show.”

“The more you struggle, the further you’re gonna go and the stronger you’re going to get,” the Hollywood action star said Wednesday. “It’s just the way the world works.”

Schwarzenegger, who celebrated 40 years of US citizenship this year, explained that “young kids today” tend to shy away and “baby themselves” from the struggle that comes with hard work in order to achieve success.

“Anybody that tries to baby themselves, and pamper themselves and protect themselves — ‘Oh, I don’t want to feel bad, I don’t really want to go through any discomfort’ — It’s over,” Schwarzenegger continued. “You have to be able to struggle.”
