He debuted in 2013, at 20-years-old, in the Barca B team in the Segunda Division. Since then, the Wolves player has not hesitated in transforming his body and becoming 'superman', as Nietzsche would say.
"We are not only speaking about strength, but also power. When he arrived at our centre in Barcelona he started with isoinertial training. A footballer, to be a professional, has to give more than 600 watts of power and Adama used to stay at 590. Now he goes over 1000," Rodriguez confessed.
This is where he started the metamorphis from a player that, with his physique, passed through Manchester City and stayed close to Liverpool. "We work with this type of machine at high speeds and with the control of one muscle or another to compensate," explained the fitness coach to see the evolution of Adama Traore.
Oscar Rodriguez directs Global Performance, a centre through which players of the stature of Eric Bailly, Edu Expósito, Marc Pedraza or sportsmen from other disciplines pass. But Rodríguez himself is exclusively dedicated to Adama Traoré, so much so that he is even his confidant in England.
"He left Barcelona in pain. He had rejected offers the previous year and thought he would do the preseason with the first team, but it was not so," confessed the physical trainer about one of the main men in the Premier League at the moment.
