Cristiano Ronaldo's determination to stay a step ahead of the rest has led him to test out cheaply available aids to improve his balance.
Real Madrid's £80million world record signing used a £90 mouthguard for the first time at the weekend and has been wearing a £25 wristband over the last few weeks to see if it ups his performance.
The mouthguard takes some getting used to, but is supposed to improve balance and increase muscle power by aligning the jaw perfectly with the skull and chest.
He has been using the Power Balance bracelet for longer. The fashionable accessory, also recommended by Formula One driver Rubens Barrichello and basketball star Shaquille O'Neal, apparently tunes in to the athlete's 'energy field'.

'Power Balance is performance technology that uses holograms embedded with frequencies that react positively with your body’s natural energy field,' say the manufacturers.
'Most everything (sic) has a frequency inherent to it. Some frequencies react positively with your body and others negatively.
'When the hologram comes in contact with your body’s energy field, it allows your body to interact with the natural, beneficial frequency stored within the hologram. This results in improved energy flow throughout your body.'
