In today's blog, we're diving into a topic that fans of fitness and football alike have been eagerly awaiting: the top five physiques in FIFA currently playing, as well as some honorable mentions from the past. Coach Greg takes us through an analysis of these athletes' bodies, their training, and what makes their physiques stand out.

1. Adama Traoré: The Ultimate Physique

At only 30 years old and standing at 178 cm (5'10”), Adama Traoré boasts an impressive weight of 86 kg (190 lbs). His physique is often compared to that of bodybuilders rather than typical footballers. Coach Greg emphasizes that Traoré's body is a product of genetics and hard work in the gym, showing off a shredded appearance and the kind of muscle definition that is rare among soccer players.

2. Cristiano Ronaldo: A Timeless Athlete

At 41, Cristiano Ronaldo continues to defy age with his physique. Standing at 6'2” and weighing 83 kg (183 lbs), he exemplifies what it means to maintain a fit, muscular body even in his later years. Coach Greg believes that Ronaldo's physique is achievable naturally, without the use of performance-enhancing drugs.

3. Leon Goretzka: A Transformation Story

Leon Goretzka, 31 years old and 189 cm (6'2”) tall, weighs in at 82 kg (180 lbs).

4. Mohamed Salah: Lean and Defined

Egyptian star Mohamed Salah, 34 years old and 175 cm (5'9”) tall, weighs 73 kg (163 lbs). While Salah may not have the narrow waist that many seek, his overall physique is still impressive for a footballer. Coach Greg highlights the importance of understanding that soccer players may not always pose in ways that highlight their physique optimally.
