SANDCAST: Beach Volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter

Mykel Jenkins: Unlocking Elite Performance On And Off The Court


Listen Later

This episode of SANDCAST: Beach Volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter, features Mykel Jenkins, the longtime personal trainer of Bourne – and John Hyden, Sara Hughes, Emily Stockman, and several others – and is a wide-ranging one. Bourne has worked with Jenkins for more than a decade, and together, they discuss:

  • The significance, and critical importance, of personal training, especially in elite sports like beach volleyball.
  • Why you have to build a unique training approach tailored to individual athletes
  • The role of trust in the trainer-athlete relationship, and the necessity of being present in every moment.
  • Tri gets into his own challenges, the mindset of elite athletes, and they talk about the journey of Sara Hughes, who made her Olympic debut in Paris this year
  • And, per usual, much, much more.
