Personal trainer

Arjen is considered to be one of the fastest and most dangerous players on the field, and not only because of his speed, but also because of his speed and skill with the ball. To reach Robben’s level, every player has to put himself out there at some point and work ten times harder than Arjen. Arjen may have a talent but is also known for working very hard in the off-season. The aspects Robben covers in each workout are CORE strength, explosive speed, quickness, agility and ball handling skills.

It is worth noting that his wife, Bernadien, stated that Arjen trained 8 hours a day in the summer of 2012/2013. It just speaks to how dedicated this superstar is and why he is considered one of the best Dutch players to ever play football.
