1
Well, for me it's a pleasure to be with you.
2
When I start to play football, I mean, when I was very, very young, with probably seven,
3
eight, nine years old, I started to play in home, in the street, with my colleagues, with my friends.
4
And I think this is where everything starts.
5
You know, that you start to feel that the sport is fun.
6
Did you fall in love with the game immediately?
7
I think so, yes.
8
I thought it was like the first love when I started to play in the streets.
9
It was fun and I said, listen, I like this.
10
Now, did you know that you were going to be a superstar your whole life?
11
Did you have that feeling?
12
Never, never, never.
13
I will be false if I say yes.
14
In the beginning, when you start, you always have that passion to enjoy yourself,
15
to spend time with friends and to have fun.
16
But in the beginning, not even with 14, 15, 16 years old, I didn't feel that.
17
Maybe after that, with 18, 19, 20s, yes, I start to feel everything was different.
18
In the beginning, probably was my father.
19
My father in the beginning pushed me a lot, not a lot, a little bit, to follow my dream.
20
In the beginning with seven, eight years, it was my father because he saw some
21
that I had some talent and he pushed me to play not only in the street,
22
but we had a local team in Madeira that they call Andorinha.
23
I don't know how you say in English, Andorinha, I don't know how you say, but now they're going to think it is a club.
24
Sure.
25
Madeira club that everyone knows if they and during I will tell you in English
26
is the name of the bird yeah
27
and I start you know to be with teammates
28
and I start you know the rule of football I start
29
that there to be honest I think both have to work in the same time because talent without work is nothing
30
and work without talent is nothing too.
31
So I think they both mix up.
32
So, and of course I have two.
33
I'm not will say that I have more one than the other one.
34
Because if you see my whole career for the last 20 years,
35
my level was high.
36
And this is, as you can know, it's really tough, not only in football, but in any area.
37
If you are top for 20 years is unbelievable.
38
And I do that and I continue to do that.
39
For me, it's a big achievement.
40
And my biggest motivation is to carry on, to still enjoy to make people happy to make my family happy
41
so for me i have both talent
42
and work ethic do you think you got a lot of
43
that work ethic from your father him pushing you when you were younger maybe both my mom too
44
mom and dad my brothers too i think it's it's this childhood to make you feel what you are
45
or make you be what what you are the difficult of of things that you pass through in your life
46
make you being stronger mentally to challenge a hard life
47
and of course the environment too helps i don't know
48
if you knows but I move with 11 years old from Madeira to Lisbon
49
which is it's it's it's hard to be honest it's probably
50
was the most difficult part in terms of professional of my career
51
so it was hard to left my family in in Madeira
52
to follow my dream in Lisbon without your family with 11
53
years old I can see now my kids cristiano my older son i don't know
54
if i will be capable to let him go to i don't know
55
at this age in this age two years more yeah will
56
be tough what's the cost what's the sacrifice of being this good for
57
that long you know what do people not see that you're doing
58
life is is a box of surprising
59
and it's hard you know it's not it's not easy you know to be in this level
60
and still push
61
and still motivate to carry on you know to score goals
62
to be in a good shape to compete with the young lions they they coming
63
and when they play against me they want to show they want to show me
64
that they are stronger than me
65
and faster than me you have to prepare very well not in terms of physically
66
but mentally too i think it's very hard
67
but in the same way it's a challenge you know
68
because as you can see you if you treat good your body you can maintain
69
so many many years and this is the big challenge for me
70
and uh it's great i feel i feel proud for
71
that to have this age
72
and still compete in a highest level for me it's it's great
73
and give me motivation to carry on first of all you
74
have a resting heart rate of 43 beats per minute
75
which you know but that's in the top one percent of men on whoop and even amongst professional athletes
76
it's in the top three percent so that's as you say top top top that is your sleep performance 81
77
so that's pretty good on average your strain is 14.9 every single day 14.9 out of out of 21
78
so that's high you're getting 51 of your days are in the green
79
and then the rest are in the yellow and
80
and then a very small percentage are in the red
81
so even with all this training your body's still recovering
82
which is really impressive what are you doing to recover
83
so well well i i can't say i can be cookie
84
and say i give you the map you are willing to do
85
that yeah it's the main the main point
86
because everyone wants to be christian but i give you the map you think you will do it that
87
it's difficult it's the discipline the discipline is the most difficult thing not only in the sport
88
but in the life small details in the end of the day will make the big difference in my opinion so
89
as you say
90
and i will keep repeat the consistency is the most difficult
91
thing just doing it every day yes every day do you ever wake up
92
and you're saying i don't want to do it today i fight against my mind yes sometimes it's it's up
93
and we are we are all human beings we are we
94
are not happy every day we are you know not in
95
a good mood every day it's normal it's part of it's part of us what do you do to overcome
96
that i fight against that you know it's it's the big challenge it's when you're You're not willing to do something,
97
but you have to do it.
98
This is the main point.
99
This is why I say our mind, it's a box of surprises and you have to challenge yourself to be consistent.
100
I repeat, sometimes it's hard.
101
It's what many people say.
102
You like to go to the gym every day.
103
Of course, no. It's not true.
104
Nobody likes to go to the gym every day.
105
But you have to do it.
106
Probably yes, because your mental strength is coming from that, from that moment that's in a hard moment,
107
you know, you should do it.
108
So and I do it because after that, maybe in the beginning, you feel hard to start.
109
But after when you finish the gym or cold plunge or, or even the training, you will feel better.
110
For me, it's right now, it's a normal day in office, as you say, sometimes it's, it's part of my life.
111
You know, it's like some people, they don't brush the teeth every day.
112
They don't take a coffee every day.
113
So I take cold punch every day because it's part of my, my routine, my, my journey.
114
You know, it's it's, and it's, it's not a sacrifice for me, to be honest.
115
I enjoy to do that.
116
serious i'm not i'm not saying that's just surprise the people
117
no no i'm enjoy to do it this kind of stuff
118
probably for some persons they are a sacrifice is a nightmare
119
but for me no i really enjoy to be honest
120
because i felt after that i feel good what's your routine like uh
121
which order do you do things we are animals of routines you know and my routines it's 90% of my days,
122
they are very similar.
123
You know, you want to know since I wake up?
124
Yeah, let's do it.
125
So in the morning, I wake up, I have my cold plunge,
126
I have my machines, I have my showers and everything i wake up i go there
127
first thing i diving first thing in the cold first thing is i prepare my water to drink
128
because you know as you know during the night we've been dehydration it's yeah it's it's it's very low
129
so i take my water my shower my cold plunge i coming down you know be nice with my
130
with my family with my kids i give a hug i coming out to have lights in my eyes
131
morning sunlight yes two three minutes just to give the information to my brain that it's it's
132
early time to wake up yes and after that i take my coffee and
133
when i start my day a nice conversation uh it's my
134
routine what i like to do it it's like in the
135
morning to sit take my coffee speak with with my kids with my wife
136
and start the day this is my routine after of course during the day have thousand things to do it
137
but this is the basic point this is the
138
that gets you started yes
139
and do you have any form of mindfulness meditation breathing practice
140
I don't do it every day I do it for example the bridge I do it in meditation
141
when I feel a little bit more stressful especially the day of the game game yeah
142
when you do meditation before a game do you visualize the
143
game at all visualize moments in the game yeah sometimes i do to visualize a few points
144
that can happen in the game i like to do it
145
and sometimes it's my subconscious they do it by himself yeah
146
so but it's nice you visualize a few things not even during the game
147
but during the period that you You go to the stadium to warm up, you know, before the game, during the game.
148
And it's fun.
149
It's fun, to be honest, and I like to do it.
150
It's amazing how they can come true.
151
What you see can come true, right?
152
Many things.
153
Even sometimes I speak with my friends and I tell them, I say, listen, today in the game, we're going to have a penalty.
154
I felt the day of the game that they're going to give a penalty and something will happen in the game.
155
I felt so I go more prepared because if you visualize before, you will be more prepared for that moment.
156
So it's fun.
157
I notice when you do a free kick or a penalty, there's like a moment right before you kick the ball, right?
158
Or you go like...
159
Breathing because it makes you calm.
160
When I do that, it makes me my heart rate...
161
Comes down.
162
Comes down.
163
Is that something you practiced?
164
Yeah, you have to practice. But...
165
But the routine of it?
166
Everything leading...
167
Because even in the training, I do it.
168
I don't do it only in the game.
169
I do it even in the training.
170
So, because it's a habit.
171
When you do so many things, one thing, it becomes a habit.
172
So, this is what I try to do every time.
173
Thank you.

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
