Cristiano Ronaldo surprised to reveal that, despite being 40 years old, his physiological age is only 28.9. The data was pointed out by analyzes of the WHOOP company, specializing in health monitoring and physical performance.
“I can’t believe it’s so good: 28.9. I’m going to play soccer for another 10 years,” said the star during a participation in the brand’s podcast, of which he is ambassador.
Tests performed by the company evaluate indicators such as heart rate, heart rate variability, sleep quality and recovery levels. According to the results, the Al-Nassr star presents an 11-year-old body younger than its chronological age.

The impressive longevity of the player is not the result of chance. Recognized by a rigorous routine, Cristiano Ronaldo follows an almost unshakable discipline: he trains daily, even on days off, keeps a regulated diet and prioritizes sleep and recovery as fundamental parts of sports performance.
World football icon, Cristiano Ronaldo is the greatest scorer in the history of football, winner of five gold balls and five Champions League. Now, besides the titles, it also adds the feat of keeping a body almost 12 less than its real age.
