CR7 is one of the fittest players in the world

Cristiano Ronaldo is known for being obsessed with his training routine. The 33-year-old Madrid forward is super strong with on ball because of his robust body which helps him get past defenders with ease.

After working hours and hours in training sessions Ronny hits the gym and flexes his muscles. In training he does a few laps around the pitch, some stretching and cardio warm-up exercises.

He has transformed from a skinny boy to a muscular beast. Ronaldo follows a strict diet to maintain his muscular body. He goes early to bed, avoids late night parties and doesn't drink to maintain his body.

Currently he is arguably the fittest amongst all active players and has expressed his desire to play until he is over 40.
