NIGERIAN-BORN British boxer, Anthony Joshua is leaving no stone unturned as he prepares for his world heavyweight title clash with Wladimir Klitschko at Wembley.
The 27-year-old will defend his IBF title for the third time and also contest the WBA belt, vacated by Tyson Fury, when he takes on the veteran Ukrainian in front of a crowd of 90,000 fans at the home of English football.
Joshua is now firmly entrenched in his training camp ahead of the contest, which is his 19th as a professional, with the former Olympian adopting a wide range of techniques to ensure he is at his physical peak to take on the 40-year-old.
He took to Instagram to show off one of those methods, as he posted a video of himself working out on a squat machine which targets the lower body to ensure the user is capable of ‘explosive power’. A vital ability for a boxer.
As Joshua worked out on the machine he was backed by up-tempo dance music while letting out grunts with every lift, with the video captioned ‘Eeeeaazyyyyyy’ for his social media followers.
The machine can offer 378kg of resistance, which equates to more than three times Klitschko’s heaviest fighting weight of 112kg in his second fight against Samuel Peter in September 2010.
