Considering the Brazilian national team athletes in rhythmic gymnastics and sports training context, we identify and analyze the understandings that these athletes have in relation to health. What kind of research was a case study, participant observation and semi-structured interviews. From the data collected, the analyzes summarized in the following categories: "Habitus sports", "The dream of the Olympics" and "Health is not only absence of disease? We see a narrow view of health that, at least for these high performance athletes, based only on pain control, so a restricted view to the physical, and psychological and social issues disregarded.
