Score A Tighter Tush
To make sure she’s fit enough for a game on the sand, Bejancke does tons of cardio by running a lot. “The fitness [training] in beach volleyball is more for running purposes… you have to be really fit because you run on sand, and there’s only two people on a side,” she says. When she’s not training, she also does workouts in the gym involving box jumps, squat jumps and lunges to target her quads and butt so she’s ready for the demanding nature of sport on sand. “Your core has to be really strong, and your quads.
