Personal trainer

The Uruguayan striker is known to be one of the most hard-working footballers of this era and no wonder why he is a great athlete without a single weakness in his game. Cavani’s tireless work ethic made him one of the few complete players of his generation and perhaps the best Uruguayan footballer of the last decade or more.

Edinson spends a lot of time working on his body, particularly his core and leg strength. This is the main reason why he is so efficient on the field.

Cavani is a big fan of weightlifting and always spends time in the gym building his explosive strength through Olympic lifts, squats, deadlifts, barbell lifts and other leg exercises.

He is also an avid sprint fan. He has been known to intensively condition for 2 hours every morning during the off-season.

As far as nutrition goes, the popular matador’s diet is high in carbohydrates, protein, and needed minerals. When it comes to junk food, Cavani ruled out that type of food long ago when he first started playing for Danubio.
