The Columbian attacking midfielder is one of the best players in football, he currently plays for the English Club Everton. Sports Personalities. Author: IWMBuzz. Here we have some of the hottest footballers! Neymar Neymar, as we all know, is one of the best players in football, Neymar is also good with his fashion games which makes him even hotter.
David Villa The Spanish football player is considered the hottest in the Spanish club. Boris is no Greek god, but at least he wouldn't be checking his reflection in the mirror every two minutes. To be blunt - they never seem quite as keen on women as they are on their own reflections.
Perhaps, once it becomes apparent that no woman could ever love them as much as they love themselves, they give up. Isn't that right, Simon Cowell? Men are meant to be a bit rough around the edges - able to wash, go and be out of the house in ten minutes flat. Forgive the generalisation, but in my experience men who spend most of their waking hours tending to their looks are rarely the sharpest of tools.
The teeth dazzle, the eyes sparkle and the designer suits are dapper, but it's fair to say that Mensa won't be beating a path to their doors any time soon. Vain men don't make great company as they tend to have only one topic of conversation - no prizes for guessing what that is.
They're also not much fun because the cornerstone of any sense of humour is the ability to laugh at yourself - something they'd never dream of doing. I once went on a date with a man where we had to sit in the restaurant for two hours after we'd finished our meal.
The reason? It was raining and he didn't want to ruin his hair. Needless to say it was our first and last date. Men taking an interest in their appearance are to be applauded - no one wants a slob whose idea of grooming is to clean his nails with a train ticket and pick his teeth with a cocktail stick.
But, equally, no one wants a man who looks as though he must take two hours to get ready for a night out.
For a man to be sexy and desirable he still has to offer some nod towards masculinity. He doesn't have to wrestle crocodiles or enter a cage-fighting contest - just not look like he'd bitch slap you to get to the bathroom first, sleep in a hairnet to keep his quiff neat or raid your eye cream. Being in touch with your feminine side is fine. Having moved there full time is not. That doesn't stop famous men like Ronaldo from going all-out in pursuit of an immaculate appearance. He's been likened to Stretch Armstrong - a doll from the Seventies that you could pull in all directions - and indeed, he does have a rather plastic appearance.
Given his Portuguese heritage, it's fair to assume Ronaldo is naturally hirsute. We're used to waxed chests on modern, metrosexual men. But waxed legs and forearms, too? It must take hours. Then there's the tan. I'm not sure if I even reach a 1, in one week'. Going to such extremes would injure lumbar muscles at worst and at best just exhaust him.
It's not all about sweat and suffering but clearly the muscle definition is not just the result of rest. Ronaldo sleeps for at least eight hours a day but all the rest and recuperation are only worth it because they allow him to indulge in daily work-out regimes that physically keep him one step ahead of other players.
He works out for three hours, five days a week at Real Madrid's Valdebebas training complex or in his huge home gym. The leg curls give him those bulging Rectus Femoris muscles in his thighs but it's the unseen core strength that gives that ability to leap and then hang in the air so often seen when he scores with headers.
And much of that core strength comes from another of the secrets to his longevity - Pilates. The key Pilates apparatus is the 'Pilates Reformer'. Via a combination of straps, springs, sliding seat and loops it offers greater resistance that someone's body weight alone would offer them if they were working on a mat with free-weights.
And the focus is on the entire core, building muscles that would have been left out of traditional work-outs. His Superman silhouette is down to the work on his latissimus dorsi, the large muscles that spread across the back and side. Ronaldo's phenomenally muscular legs are sculpted in the gym, which he visits daily as part of a gruelling regime.
A post shared by Cristiano Ronaldo cristiano. His promotion of the discipline is limited to a few Instagram snaps but Ronaldo is as convinced a convert to the late German fitness coach Joseph Pilates's method as anyone.
What is astounding is the mental discipline involved in Ronaldo's brutal post-training workouts. His home pool is no more than 25 metres in length but he has the concentration levels to go up and down it for the good of his body when other players might be relaxing after matches.
The Pilates apparatus is also demanding on the mind. There is no ball in sight when he goes through those gruelling routines. There are times when he can't resist integrating the ball. During one of his favourite chin-up routines he puts a football between the knees. After each set of 10 chin-ups he drops the ball from his knees on to his right foot and volleys it into a strategically placed basketball two metres in front of him.
Ronaldo's expertise in the gym field has led to him to going into business with American company Crunch Fitness and there are plans to open over more gyms in the next few years with his CR7 branding. If Ronaldo has honed his workout routines and incorporated rest as the years have passed he has also refined his diet. He tends to eat four or five smaller meals rather than three big meals a day.
Everything is designed to speed up metabolism. That's why he steers clear of sugary foods that slow down that process. He is not vegetarian but he knows that fish is preferable to meat because of the lower fat content. That does not need to be a problem because the Portuguese dish Bacalao a la Brasa braised cod is one of his favourites. There are plenty of whole grains, egg whites and fresh vegetables and he knows that one of the most important times to eat is immediately after a game when the body is crying out for replenishment.
Gone are the days when Real Madrid players refuel on pizza. Their stars always eat sushi post-match and that fits Ronaldo's strict regimen.
