Cristiano Ronaldo is respected for his dedication to the game and is continuing to play at a high level since he is the top goalscorer in the Saudi Pro League with Al Nassr and gets called up for the Portuguese national team. CR7 is a football legend, and many have wondered what he does in preparation for training or a game. In an interview on the Whoop podcast with the CEO of Whoop, Will Ahmed, he revealed his daily routine before training or a game with Al Nassr. Ronaldo said, "I wake up and take a cold shower, then drink water and go give a hug to my children, then I go out to see the sunshine so my mind understands that it is morning, then I sit down to drink my coffee and eat breakfast with my family, and then my day begins.”

Ronaldo goes on to explain that cold showers or being in cold water are a big part of his daily routine to recover from intense training sessions or football games. This has made him continue to play at a high level at 39 years old while other footballers would retire. CR7 said, "I dive in cold water every day. This is part of my routine. 90% of my days are the same.”

Ronaldo also talked about how meditation is very important to him in relieving the stress he may have. The Portuguese striker said, "When I feel stressed, I like to meditate, especially on the day of the match; sometimes I do that to imagine and imagine the events of the match and the points that may occur; sometimes my subconscious mind does it automatically before going to the stadium and while warming up and doing it is good and enjoyable and I like to do."

Ronaldo is disciplined in his diet and exercise but it is a challenge for him

Another admirable trait Ronaldo has is his strict discipline with his exercises and diet, which keeps him in great shape at 39 years old. Although he sticks to it, Ronaldo admits that it is a struggle. The Al Nassr striker said, "I fight against my mind every day. Sometimes that happens. We are all human, and we are not in a good and happy mood every day. It is a normal thing and part of our lives.”
