  • Ronaldo attributes his youthful physiological age to a rigorous health regimen that includes walking 17,000 steps daily and sleeping more than seven hours per night.
  • Speaking on the Whoop podcast, Ronaldo joked that his biological age means he could extend his football career by another decade.
