The English former soccer player, 48, proved in an Instagram post on Sunday, April 28, that retirement hasn't stopped him from maintaining perfectly chiseled abs. "Can’t beat a little down lighting Thanks to my lighting technician @victoriabeckham," David captioned a shirtless photo of himself, posing in a pair of blue shorts, socks and sneakers.

David also tagged Bobby Rich, who describes himself as a "Performance Coach" in his Instagram bio. The father of four's post comes soon after he and his family celebrated Victoria's 50th birthday with a star-studded party held on April 20 at Oswald's — an exclusive members-only club in London. All of Victoria's former Spice Girls bandmates celebrated the fashion designer formerly known as Posh Spice at the event — and she was escorted out of the venue on her husband's back because she's recovering from a foot injury.
