Will Hitzelberger, as the Founder and President of SPECTRUM, has made significant strides in sports performance training, particularly in soccer. He is a VertiMax ambassador and has been a Certified VertiMax Master Trainer and Presenter, leveraging VertiMax equipment to redefine soccer training with innovative techniques.

Will sits down with Al to talk about what's really lacking in soccer for the average athlete.

"You have to seek out strength training outside of your club because it is a very important attribute to progressing in the sport now."
