Cristiano Ronaldo is 40 and still playing at the top level, and a Whoop fitness analysis says his biological age is 28.9.
That’s a difference few athletes can match. Cedric Soares, a Euro 2016 winner with Portugal and now a Sao Paulo defender, told ESPN Brasil [via Dioguinho] how the Al-Nassr star is still dominating after two decades at the top.
“He’s a winner, he strives for excellence every day,” Cédric said about his time with the national team.
He explained how Ronaldo created a culture of focus by eliminating distractions during international duty.
“In the national team, he used to say: ‘No phones, let’s go to the room and talk a little.’ He shares his experiences and daily life, tells stories. He’s a great professional and the results are obvious.”

“He stops using his phone at certain times. He says it affects his sleep, so he leaves it outside the bedroom,” he said.
“There was a time when he told me, ‘Cedric, you can’t use 5G because it can affect your sleep.’ That was when 5G came along. I don’t know if he still does it, but he blocked the signal to sleep x hours.”
