The centre-forward is currently enjoying excellent form.
Benjamin Sesko, the forward for Manchester United, is currently in excellent form. His turnaround has not happened by coincidence. Sesko, 22, is already making a name for himself as a perfectionist who is obsessed with working out and can’t leave the gym.
With seven goals in his previous nine games, including Sunday’s game-winning goal against Crystal Palace, he is reaping the benefits.
Why was Benjamin Sesko banned from the gym?
Sesko has proved to be a “gym rat” almost from the beginning. According to The Athletic, his former team, RB Salzburg, where he played till the age of 20, even took his wristband he used to enter the gym because they thought he was going beyond.
During a recent mid-season trip to Dubai, Sesko collaborated extensively with personal coach Nic St-Maurice. Benjamin Sesko kept his foot firmly on the throttle despite the United players being allowed time to relax in between games.
Sesko concentrated on unilateral training exercises with St-Maurice at SPS Performance, which included driving off one leg, jumping, and balancing while also strengthening his hamstrings, glutes, and lower back.

Heavy-set offensive linemen in the NFL are more likely to perform these exercises, yet Sesko handled everything with ease.
St-Maurice said: “Out of the 14 days, he did 13 sessions. He was more hungry than ever. I’ve been telling everybody for the past couple years that he’s probably the best athlete out of all the football players that I’ve trained.“
“Obviously, he’s got that left foot, right foot. You see that on the pitch.“
“But in the gym, some of the stuff that he could do, even when we played basketball, for a guy that size and that young, I was shocked.”
Benjamin Sesko has made every effort to increase his prospects of success at Old Trafford. In order to enhance the quality of his sleep, he even added double glazing and moved into a house in Cheshire that has a little football pitch and a sauna. Sesko also practices making decisions by visualising in-game events with a virtual reality headset.
