His dad shot to fame as a bodybuilder-turned-movie-star.

And Patrick Schwarzenegger was seen working hard on his own physique out in Santa Monica on Monday.

The 23-year-old, who's followed in his father's footsteps to become an actor, was seen soaked in sweat during his exercise session.

His face was tightened up with effort as he lifted a set of neon green weights. While at 15lbs they were smaller than those his bodybuilder father lifted in his prime, it was clear Patrick was working hard.

The son of Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver had worn a grey tank top that showed off his toned arms.

He'd also got on black shorts and had pulled a pair of matching black headphones over his ears.

Late last month Patrick posted an Instagram photo of himself in camouflage gear as part of his costume for the military drama mini-series The Long Road Home.

'That's a WRAP on The Long Road Home,' he captioned from Fort Hood, Texas. 

He went on: 'Releases this Fall on @natgeochannel God bless America and all the United States Armed Forces.'

The Long Road Home is based on a nonfiction book of the same name by Martha Raddatz about Black Sunday, a 2004 attack on U.S. military in Sadr City in 2004.

Kate Bosworth, Jason Ritter, Michael Kelly, Noel Fisher and Sarah Wayne Callies are also all in the cast of the show.

Patrick's future projects also include a movie entitled Midnight Sun in which he's starring with Bella Thorne.
