As the saying goes, abs are made in the gym and in the kitchen. A statement which gains more and more backing when considering the damn near aggressive rig of one Cristiano Ronaldo. Yes โ aggressive. I know what I said.
The 34-year-old Juventus forward keeps it high and tight with his diet. Chowing down on up to six meals at any given day to accommodate for his athleteโs metabolism, there certainly isnโt any room for your stray Woolies chicken fingers or 3 AM Jalapeno Cheetos here.
Here is generally what can be found in Cristiano Ronaldoโs daily menu.
Breakfast
- Ham & cheese
- Egg whites
- Wholewheat/wholegrain cereals

Couldnโt be me, man. Couldnโt be me.
