It is known that many professional footballers work on their leg power by involving some sort of kickboxing or martial arts that include doing a lot of leg exercises such as low and high kicks. By doing this kind of training, Pogba strengthens the key muscles of the legs which are used when he shoots the ball. It is good to mention the importance of the hip flexor, quadriceps and the other muscles of the hip which are always involved in each and every move, a footballer makes.
