Buns & Biceps

In a satirical take on the fitness craze, a former bodybuilder turned motivational speaker, 'The Pump' (Arnold Schwarzenegger), discovers his old rival, 'Iron Mike' (Lou Ferrigno), is secretly selling junk food disguised as health supplements. Teaming up with a feisty aerobics instructor (Jane Fonda) and a sharp investigative journalist (Jennifer Lopez), 'The Pump' must expose the scam and save the nation from a carb-induced catastrophe. The film blends high-octane action with absurd humor as they race against time to uncover the truth behind the deceptive diet.

It's remembered as a unique, if somewhat bizarre, entry in Schwarzenegger's filmography.
