The former Real Madrid goal-scoring machine is still lightning quick, one of the strongest around and is able to leap to incredible heights, per the Sun.

He is able to achieve all this through exercise, diet, and rest. This has inspired most of his teammates to step up their physical condition by following Ronaldo's path.

"Since Cristiano Ronaldo started training with Al Nassr, every player at the club has been training more intensively and following a strict diet," Jose Bellisa, a Nutritionist at Al-Nassr revealed as quoted by CR7 Timeline.

Ronaldo credited for league success

Meanwhile, Cristiano Ronaldo has been identified as the secret ingredient behind the Al-Nassr women's football team's league success.

The veteran, who missed out on winning his first silverware with Al-Nassr after his side were eliminated in the Saudi Super Cup, was instrumental in the female side's maiden league success.

The ex-Manchester United forward, known for his unquenchable desire for winning, motivated Al-Nassr women's team.

Cristiano produces stunning assist

Sports Brief earlier reported that Portugal star Cristiano Ronaldo added another assist to his name with a stunning pass to his teammate in the Saudi Professional League.

Al Nassr came up against Al-Taawoun on Friday, February 17, and Ronaldo was picked to wear the armband for his team.

It did not take long before the 38-year-old had his first significant impact in the game as he produced one of the assists of the season.
