The first image he shared featured a look at one of his Spaniels peeking into the sauna from a window, as he wrote over the snap: "Ever have that feeling someone's watching you👀."

Beckham then uploaded his first shirtless snap, as he wore a beanie and held his phone camera while posing in front of the sauna. "Self-care Sunday 🔥 & 🧊," he wrote alongside the photo.

And after sharing an image of his four dogs watching over him outside, the athlete posted one more shirtless photo, as he stood in a towel in front of the sauna with a caption elaborating on his relaxing day.

Beckham, a longtime fan of Iglucraft, has been using his downtime wisely as of late. In September, the dad of 4 shared a detailed look at his growing outdoor garden and farming area — as well as some chickens — on his Instagram Stories.

After showing off the spring onions, wildflowers, plum trees, kale and cabbage that he's been growing at his Cotswolds home, David's wife Victoria Beckham, 50, wrote a hilarious response to the social media garden tour.

"Who is this man," she wrote on her own Instagram Stories, alongside multiple chicken stickers. "Give me my husband back!"

Farming hijinks aside, David and Victoria are also keeping busy as parents, as they share four kids together; Brooklyn Beckham, 25, Romeo Beckham, 22, Cruz Beckham, 19, and Harper Beckham, 13.

Speaking with PEOPLE at Stella Artois' Let's Do Dinner event at Cipriani in New York City last month, David confirmed that his relationship with the former Spice Girl and fashion designer was "absolutely" love at first sight. The couple tied the knot in July 1999, and recently celebrated their 25th anniversary.

"Well, of course. She was a Spice Girl and sexy and beautiful and charming," he said of his first moments meeting Victoria. "Then I found out what a strong woman she is. So it's again the gift that kept on giving."

As for the farm, he told PEOPLE at the time that Victoria "gets a lot of content out of the chickens" and that one of their farm pets unfortunately died. "I'm down a chicken. The others are doing great. I'm sure you're going to be seeing a lot more content," he said.
