Humans have a really wide range of physical strengths, of course, but that's true for their capabilities, too. Some people can develop muscle strength very fast, or have better eyesight, or can hold their breath for much longer than their peers. The reverse is true, too.
For me, it means that my muscles get sore much more quickly than regular peoples', and my heart has a hard time keeping up with the rest of me. When I try pushing past those limits, just to keep pace with everybody else, it's very exhausting. The caffeine helps trick my brain into thinking I'm not as exhausted as I am. It accelerates my heartbeat, too, which isn't good, but... well, it's not like this kind of thing will kill me for real, so it's nothing to worry about.
