Fritz 17 - The giant PC chess program, now with Fat Fritz
The most popular chess program offers you everything you will need as a dedicated chess enthusiast, with innovative training methods for amateurs and professionals alike.
As an actor Schwarzenegger has been extremely successful and popular but the real stars of his "Stay at Home" videos are his donkey Lulu and his horse Whiskey.
Though Lulu still has trouble to understand the rules of chess.
Here’s your daily Lulu update - she’s not the best chess partner but she’s getting there. If you’ve been putting off something like learning chess with your family, use the time you’d normally be out and about. pic.twitter.com/S3QoBJtO7q

This tweet provoked an invitiation from Garry Kasparov:
You’re too kind, it wasn’t a draw! Thanks for always giving back and teaching chess to kids. Because of your inspiration, chess is part of our after-school programs. Now we have youth chess at every @ArnoldSports festival around the world. I hope to catch up soon & learn more! https://t.co/ZgwUTxZg4S

How I became World Champion Vol.1 1973-1985
Garry Kasparov's rise to the top was meteoric and at his very first attempt he managed to become World Champion, the youngest of all time. In over six hours of video, he gives a first hand account of crucial events from recent chess history, you can improve your chess understanding and enjoy explanations and comments from a unique and outstanding personality on and off the chess board.
The twitter post and the videos with Lulu and Whiskey are part of an awareness campaign with which Schwarzenegger tries to encourage people to "Stay at Home" and to keep physical distance in the times of the coronavirus. The video which started this campaign has been extremely popular on YouTube and Twitter:
In fact, the videos with Whiskey and Lulu are so popular that Schwarzenegger decided to give them their own t-shirt merchandise. 100% of the profits will go to After-School All-Stars, which Schwarzenegger founded back in 1992.
Playing chess with a donkey might be a joke to entertain his audience but Schwarzenegger has time and again shown that he is an avid chess fan.
