Cristiano Ronaldo, exceptional physical shape at almost 41 years old

Cristiano Ronaldo has long been a proponent of heat therapy and cold baths to reduce muscle inflammation and maintain optimal fitness, a necessity as he continues to lead both Al-Nassr and the Portugal national team.

The Portuguese star posted, on his Instagram account, a picture of him after he came out of the sauna, a post that gathered more than 7 million likes in less than four hours.

“After Sauna”Ronaldo humorously wrote in the description of the post. Between metabolic age and real age, it is certain that Cristiano Ronaldo continues to prove that, above all, age is just a number.

Fans reacted in the comments of the post:

• “Discipline is his middle name”

• “Determination, Consistency and Passion”

• “He's 40, almost 20. His dedication is unmatched…”

In 2025, Cristiano Ronaldo revealed that he has a metabolic age of 28.7 years, due to the physical shape he has always sought to maintain throughout his career. It is certain that the birth certificate of the Al Nassr player already indicates 40 years, and his 41st birthday is close, on February 5, according to abola.pt.

Meanwhile, Ronaldo is preparing for Al Nassr's return to official competitions after almost a month off. His side's next game is against Iraqi side Al Zawraa on December 24 in the Asian Champions League 2, a competition in which CR7 has yet to feature this season.

• The Portuguese star hopes to be in good form at the 2026 World Cup as well. The edition in the United States of America, Canada and Mexico will be the last for Cristiano, who hopes to win the trophy for the first time.
