David Beckham is reportedly hoping to extend his football career until he is 40 by doing Pilates exercises. The 34-year-old said he does an hour of Pilates every day, and that he is in his best shape in years.

It is claimed Beckham is keen to impress England boss Fabio Capello and prove he is fit enough for the World Cup in South Africa next year. The star reportedly took up the exercise regime while on loan at Italian club AC Milan, as the team say all players should undertake it to keep supple. Beckham said: "I do an hour of Pilates a day. The medical set-up at Milan is fantastic, and fitness-wise I am the best I have been for a long time."
