Through exercise, diet and rest Ronaldo has become one of the most physically dominant athletes in the world
The Juventus superstar is still lightning quick and as strong as an ox
Ronaldo - who claims he has the body of a 23-year-old - works hard to maintain his amazing physique.
He spends hours in the gym, working on Pilates-based exercises rather than lifting heavy weights.
In particular the former Man Utd superstar uses resistance work to strengthen his core.
He also spends time in his pool as swimming is a full body workout.
And he has a cryotherapy chamber installed in his house.
Standing in the chamber for around three minutes, liquid nitrogen freezes Ronaldo to between minus 160 and minus 200 degrees Celsius.
Cryotherapy beats muscle soreness and reduces swelling, inflammation or sprains - allowing Ronaldo to be ready for the next match or training session sooner.
The new photo comes days before Juve travel to fourth placed Roma, with Ronaldo’s side trailing Inter Milan in the table, but only on goal difference.
Ronaldo kick-started the decade with a bang, netting his 56th career hat-trick as the Serie A champions thrashed Cagliari 4-0.
The ex-Manchester United and Real Madrid star became just the second ever player to score a hat-trick in the Premier League, Serie A and La Liga.
Ronaldo’s first hat-trick in the Italian league ensures he has now achieved the feat across three major European leagues.
His first came for Manchester United in a 6-0 drubbing of Newcastle in 2008.

Following his move to Real Madrid in 2009, the Portuguese superstar then bagged his first of 34 hat-tricks for Los Blancos in a 4-1 win against Mallorca.
The only other player that can boast the same achievement is former Manchester United flop Alexis Sanchez.
The Chilean scored hat-tricks for Arsenal, former club Udinese and for Barcelona.
But Sanchez can't match Ronaldo's record of scoring a hat-trick in his tenth competition.
Including the three European leagues, the superstar has also scored trebles in the Champions League, Copa del Rey, Club World Cup, World Cup, World Cup qualifiers, Euro qualifiers and the UEFA Nations League.
Ronaldo's fierce rival Lionel Messi has 54 career hat-tricks to his name.
