But it was the former Real Madrid attacker well shaped abs that caused a lot of fans talking. It was his painted toenails that his followers were delighted to note. 

Shockingly, that is just a number of observance that the five-time Ballon D’or winners keeps to in order to keep himself in tip-top shape. 

Here is a look at Ronaldo’s healthy way of living:

That ex-Manchester United legend can munch up to half a dozen meals a day, with fish a massive part of the Portuguese diet. 

Swordfish, tuna alongside braised cod are specific favourites.

For the morning meal, Ronaldo will eat ham alongside cheese and little-fat youghurt. 

If he does not have that for breakfast, Cristiano Ronaldo will munch on avocado toast for snacks. 

The first meal of the day might comprise of chicken and salad, while the No 2 might be fish – probably tuna with salad, eggs alongside olives. 

For the evening meal, the Portuguese great fill his boots with meats or fish, probably breaking them in double separate sittings. 

Cryotherapy chamber

Since the year 2013, the Al Nassr attacker has vowed to undertake cryotherapy treatment.

Cristiano Ronaldo had a chamber, which cost about £50,000, installed in his Spanish apartment when he represented Real Madrid.

And he still utilizes them frequently to keep his physique.

Standing in the chamber for about three minutes, liquid nitrogen freezes Ronaldo to around minus 160 and minus 200 degrees Celsius.

Cryotherapy defeats muscle soreness and lowers swelling, inflammation or sprains.

Four hour workouts daily

When it comes to working out, Cristiano Ronaldo does not do things in average quantities.

Just make an enquiry from ex-team mate Patrice Evra who once established he hated going round to Ronaldo’s home for an evening meal, due to the fact that after they ate he made him do a fierce workout.

A lot of daytime sleep

Cristiano Ronaldo likes his sleep and gets at least eight hours every night based on reports. 

However, that is in addition to the five naps the former Manchester United man takes during the 24 hours.

Discussing about rest, Ronaldo stated: “Proper sleep is really important for getting the most out of training.

“I go to bed early and get up early, especially before matches. Sleep helps muscles recover which is really important.”

Painting the nails in his toe

Following an hectic week in Saudi Arabia, Cristiano Ronaldo recently let his hair down in a sauna.

Posting the picture on social media, he was seen with black painted toenails.

It is not the first time the Real Madrid legend has done this, with followers also attracted to his feet when he was seen with UFC fighter Francis Ngannou earlier in 2023.

Nevertheless, there is a indeed a cogent reason why Cristiano Ronaldo does this.

Based on reports from German media outlet Bild, a lot of athletes paint their toes to protect themselves from fungi and bacteria infections.

Bild claimed: “Many top athletes do this to protect their nails from fungi and bacteria when they are stuck in sweaty shoes for hours. Even Mike Tyson.”

This is another reason why Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the Greatest Players Of All Time and maybe even the Greatest Athlete Of All Time.
