How England’s Strongest Footballer Adebayo Akinfenwa Builds His Body

Adebayo Akinfenwa is one of England’s most charismatic and famous footballers; he’s also one of the strongest to have ever played the game.
Don’t believe us? The now retired striker, also known as The Beast, was rated as the strongest player on FIFA for many years. In 2021, Akinfenwa still held the crown with a strength rating of 97, beating off Romelu Lukaku no less.
Here, he runs Men’s Health UK through the workout he uses to build bolder shoulders, bigger biceps and a stronger core.
