Many of us (some even in the early 20s) cite age as the reason for creaky knees, aching backs and general sluggishness. Cristiano Ronaldo would have none of it. The football star and multiple time Ballon d'Or winner; one of the greatest sportsmen of our times, turns 35 today. To him however, age seems like it is nothing but a number. Though inching towards middle age, a swipe through Cristiano's instagram page is proof that physical fitness and increasing number of birthday candles on the cake are mutually exclusive of each other. In pictures throughout his profile, he sports shredded arms and more abs than the eye can see, sometimes even catching up on exercise with partner Georgina Rodriguez by his side.
