The sweet music of trainer Mykel Jenkins
SANDCAST: Beach Volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter12 Feb 2020

The sweet music of trainer Mykel Jenkins

A GARAGE IN AN UNKNOWN LOCATION – It was all wrong. Mykel Jenkins is all about the soundtrack of not just sports, but life. He wants it to be beautiful, and when something is done right, it doesn’t just look beautiful, it sounds beautiful. It’s a symphony, with violins and cellos and tubas, all working in perfect harmony.

And here was Tri Bourne, “thundering in here with his heavy feet, ‘Boom! Boom!’” Jenkins said on SANDCAST: Beach volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter. “And I was like ‘Oh, my God, he’s going to break my self-made floor.’”

Jenkins looked at John Hyden, the only beach volleyball player he was training at the time, and asked him what in the world he was doing. Hyden was 40 at the time, and he was bringing Jenkins a project?

“Just look,” Hyden, fresh off a split with Sean Scott, with whom he had a wildly successful partnership, told him.

Jenkins saw some things in the 22-year-old Bourne, yes. But it was maybe one out of every three jumps. Hyden wasn’t going to be beating Phil Dalhausser with this kid. Bourne had been walking out of the gym when he heard that. The PG version of this story reads that Bourne simply disagreed with that sentiment, and if you’d like the R-rated one, you can listen to the podcast. Either way, “once he did that,” Jenkins recalled, “I turned to Johnny and said ‘That’s the dude.’ From that point on, I knew.” And Jenkins had his second beach volleyball player as a client.

He’s a difficult guy to track down, Jenkins. He is at once well-known and a secret in beach volleyball circles, and he likes it that way. He joked – maybe – that he was breaking protocol by having a podcast in his garage, the location of which we’re just going to keep secret because it seems that’s what Jenkins would like. Jenkins is responsible, in large part, for Hyden’s unprecedented longevity and Bourne’s blink-and-you-missed-it rise from 22-year-old kid who was barely qualifying to, in the span of a single season, a regular finalist.

Initially the trainer for Hyden’s wife, Robin, Jenkins was “always inquisitive about an Olympic athlete with his notoriety and skill set,” he said. “And she’d talk about how certain things were hurting him and I’d mention a few things I’d do. As fate would have it, he got into a few situations where they were nagging him so she talked him to coming to see her ‘actor friend.’”

Yes, the ‘actor friend’ is Jenkins. He’s acted in 17 movies and had a 13-week contract on General Hospital as Officer Byron Murphy. He’s currently in post-production on two of his own films where he’s producing, directing, and starring. You might say he’s a man who wears many hats, though here Jenkins will shrug and say that no, it’s all one hat.

It’s all art. Jenkins is here to make something beautiful, be it on the big screen or on the beach.

“The next time you watch an average athlete, listen to the sound of the game and listen to how sloppy it is,” Jenkins said. “It’s like somebody with a drumset who doesn’t know what they’re doing. Then go watch someone special and close your eyes and listen to the way that music plays in your ear. You don’t realize it because you’re caught up in what you see. The soundtrack of that – if you took the soundtrack off Rocky, you’re not watching it. It’s like [Floyd] Mayweather: There’s a sweet science. If the music is beautiful – that’s how I know you guys are playing well.”

Which is why he hated Bourne’s thunderous feet that first afternoon in the gym. There was nothing beautiful about his boom booming all over the gym. While Hyden was flitting over the mats, fast and soft, Bourne was providing an unwelcome percussion to the concert. But then five months passed, and when Jenkins closed his eyes, listening to his team work out, he couldn’t tell who was who.

“I knew we were onto something,” he said. And he was right. Bourne would pile up accolade after accolade: AVP Rookie of the Year, AVP Most Improved, FIVB Top Rookie, AVP Best Offensive Player. He and Hyden would win the AVP Team of the Year in 2015 and make nine finals from 2012-2016. They qualified for the 2016 Olympics but, because of the country quota allowing only two teams per country to compete, were left off, despite finishing the year ranked fifth in the world.

Jenkins joked that Bourne needed a plight. While Hyden had “worked in oblivion” for ten years on the beach before reaching the top, Bourne had been plucked to it. And then that plight came, in the form of an autoimmune disease that sidelined Bourne for the better part of two seasons. Recalling that moment, Jenkins paused, fighting tears. And it is there that you can see why he only trains a select few, why he won’t take dozens of players and train them as he has Bourne and Hyden and, now, Kelley Larsen and Emily Stockman.

“I don’t like heartbreak. I like Hollywood endings,” he said. “So if I don’t see a Hollywood ending, I’m not participating. I like champagne.”

Which is why his list of players he trains includes three – Bourne, Stockman and Larsen – who are contending for the 2020 Olympics, and another, Traci Callahan, who is on her way up the ladder.

“Once you see something special, God takes over,” Jenkins said. “If I don’t see you in the movie, you’re not going to be on the set. But if I do, we’re going to see it through, until we’re going to be on the big screen. I want to build characters who can handle any situation, and then watch them handle it. That’s captivating to me.”

His workouts leave anyone who’s allowed to try them heaving. Stockman, one of the fittest women on tour, said that his workouts kick her ass. Larsen said this past season was the best shape she’s ever been in.

“You’re never comfortable,” Bourne said. “So you’re whole gym session is all about finding your music, your flow state.”

Jenkins wants you to find your music among chaos. When he’s watching Bourne or Larsen or Stockman on Amazon Prime, “I turn the volume down, and I watch,” he said. “And I know when to turn it up, because I can see the violins lining up and the tubas because you can hear the beauty of the game.”

We just got the full family together on this one and reflected on five years of podcasting, and the wild and surreal life changes that have come with it. Thank you all SO MUCH for being part of this wonderful journey. Cheers to five years, and cheers to five more SHOOTS! *** NEW BOOK ALERT!!!

Tim Brewster, the Chinese Bamboo Tree of the AVP

Tim Brewster, the Chinese Bamboo Tree of the AVP

This episode of SANDCAST: Beach Volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter features Tim Brewster, a breakout star on the AVP this season who had career-highs in so many categories in 2022 that it’s difficult to count. For starters, he made his first main draw, won his first international medal (then added two more, and will likely add at least one more before the year is out), won his first AVP match, then another…and another…and, well, he won a whole lot of them. We talked all about Brewster’s huge season, as well as: The work he has put in over these last five years, all in the name of one day hoping it would work out The lessons he learned from April Ross How he and Kyle Friend became such a perfect meld on the court The magic of working with Jose Loiola for five years, and why he was able to have such a huge season And, as always, so much more.

Molly Turner, taking the hard road in 2022: ’Let’s see if you can do it.’

This week’s episode of SANDCAST: Beach Volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter, features Molly Turner, one of the toughest, grittiest, go-get-after-it players on Tour. She had a choice this year: To play the points game and scramble around just to be directly into the main draw, or play the game to win, in which she’d begin in the qualifiers but give herself the highest ceiling possible. The result? A career-high in every single category in 2022. We chatted all about her gold medals, her wins in Seaside and Laguna, and a whole lot more, including: This season, in which she traveled more than she ever has, hitting the Volleyball World Beach Pro Tour for the first time Why she decided to begin competing internationally, and how addicting – and challenging -- the road can be Why there should be more trash talking in women’s beach volleyball How to channel the proper emotions on the beach volleyball court And, as always, a whole lot more.

Theo Brunner, America’s top blocker, is coming into his own

This week’s episode of SANDCAST: Beach Volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter, features the man who is not only the most formidable blocker in the United States, but also the guy who is quietly the funniest guy on the AVP Tour: Theo Brunner. At 37 years old, Brunner is finally coming into his own, on and off the court: Creating a hysterical Instagram persona, delivering hilariously candid interviews for Volleyball World, while also putting together his best AVP season to date with Chaim Schalk. We chatted – and laughed – a lot on this one, covering: How he and Chaim Schalk have developed such perfect team chemistry Why he is playing what he thinks is the best beach volleyball of his career Who’s better: Phil Dalhausser in his prime, or Anders Mol right now? His fourth-place finish at World Champs, and how he and Schalk can build on it And, as always, much, much more! ENJOY! *** NEW BOOK ALERT!!!

Season-ending Mailbag: How was Phoenix? Olympic partnerships; Maximizing the off-season

This episode of SANDCAST: Beach Volleyball with Tri Bourne and Travis Mewhirter, is our semi-monthly, always-popular edition of our mailbag, where we take your fan questions and answer them alongside UCLA’s finest, and now one of USA Volleyball’s brightest, Savvy Simo. We’re calling this the season-ending mailbag, although that might be a bit of a misnomer, as the season isn’t technically over, with two more AVPs to go, in Huntington Beach and Central Florida. But, the Phoenix Championships have ended, so it’s sort of the end of what we consider the 2022 season. We chatted about quite a bit, including: What are the partnerships looking like for Paris 2024? How was the AVP Phoenix Gold Series Championships? How to maximize your off-season Who surprised us the most this season? ENJOY! *** NEW BOOK ALERT!!!
