Cristiano Ronaldo's latest picture, flaunting his incredible physique at 40, has taken social media by storm. The Portuguese football icon, who is arguably one of the fittest athletes across the globe, continues to go strong for Al-Nassr in the Saudi Pro League despite his growing age.
On Friday, Ronaldo took to social media to share a picture of himself post a sauna session. The photo showcasing his sculpted physique and chiseled muscles went viral on social media. It also caught the attention of Tesla CEO and world's riches man Elon Musk, who joked he should start hitting the gym.
"Guess I need to work out," Musk commented under Ronaldo's post, sparking buzz on X. Fans soon joined in as many filled Musk's comment sections with memes and jokes.
Ronaldo, an epitome of discipline and commitment in football, is known to maintain around 6-7% of body fat percentage, which is lower than most elite footballers, who maintain around 10-15% body fat percentage. Despite having turned 40, Ronaldo continues to work hard on his body and has maintained an incredible physique, which can put even youngsters to shame.
Over the years, the Portuguese superstar has maintained a strict diet and training regimen, and he follows it religiously to maintain an optimum level of performance. While his pace and reflexes have slowed down with growing age, Ronaldo continues to bag goals consistently for Al-Nassr in the Saudi Pro League.
Ronaldo continues to wow fans with his amazing physique and his hard work, showcasing his "no days off" philosophy. The Portuguese superstar, who signed a two-year contract with Al-Nassr last year, has been among the goals for the club once again this season. He has so far scored 10 goals in 9 matches for Al-Nassr in the Saudi Pro League.
Ronaldo is also set to lead Portugal's attack in the FIFA World Cup 2026 next year. The 40-year-old will be hoping to win the trophy with Portugal in what might be his World Cup swansong.
