In this YouTube monologue, Rodrigo Barros discusses how he expects his coach to respond when he tells them he is tired. He critiques coaches who ignore fatigue and push athletes to train at full intensity regardless of their current state. Barros shares a principle he learned from his friend Guilherme Vaz: when you have 100 % capacity, give 100 %; when you have 70 % capacity, give 100 % of that 70 %. He emphasizes that daily biological and psychological variability must be respected, and that training intensity should be adjusted to match the athlete’s actual condition on any given day.
