Cristiano Ronaldo is 41 years old. His body, according to science, didn’t get the memo. 📉
Biotechnologist Tamara Martín explains that in elite athletes with optimized habits, biological age can be up to 15 years behind actual age. In Ronaldo’s case, the difference reaches 13 years. The recipe? Nothing magical: he sleeps between 7 and 8 hours every night, walks more than 17,000 steps a day, and since turning 30 has incorporated cryotherapy, ice baths, and muscle compression into his routine.
Doctor Alberto Ortegón sums it up like this: the more the body is pushed, the more rest and nutrition must be taken care of. Ronaldo eats six times a day, every three or four hours, so he never lets his pace drop. You already know the result: he keeps scoring goals in World Cups that many players do not even get the chance to play in. 🐐
