The 22-year-old has already scored eight goals this season and has played a big role in seeing Pep Guardiola’s side at the top of the Premier League.
He gave fans a glimpse of the hard graft he’s had to put in at the gym this campaign with a video of him bench pressing.
The footage shows the youngster making light work of 70kg before calmly moving up to 90kg.
He managed two repetitions with relative ease, so then decides to whack on another 30kg.
But Sterling quickly finds out he’s made a mistake as when he lowers the bar to his chest, the 120kg weight proves too much to push back up and the winger gets trapped.
Thankfully, he managed to crawl underneath and escape.
Fans watching the hilarious moment didn’t hold back in trolling Sterling’s failings.
“Hahaha what an idiot,” one user commented.
Another wrote: “That could have been so dangerous if it wasn’t an assisted bench!”
While third added: “He’s never going to live this down.”
