WIN THE BALL WITH WILL WORKOUT

To finish off the day, we took this workout to the streets of Italy! William is a central defender for both Udinese Calcio and Nigerian Super Eagles - a key role in any soccer team. So a huge part of his game is the ability to win balls in the air to score or protect the goal. These movements can make or break a match, so Ekong needs to be beyond exceptional in this area. This workout incorporates explosive, lifting exercises to improve his aerial power and landing stability. These exercises (when done well) are beneficial for any soccer player to enhance their power on the pitch.
