Arnold, 76, previously underwent three surgeries on his heart after being born with a congenital heart condition, a bicuspid aortic valve.
“Last Monday, I had surgery to become a little bit more of a machine: I got a pacemaker," he revealed on his Arnold's Pump Club podcast.
“I had my surgery on Monday, and by Friday, I was already at a big environmental event with my friend and fellow fitness crusader Jane Fonda.
“Nobody would ever have thought I started the week with a surgery.”
