Olympic beach volleyball players Taryn Kloth and Kristen Nuss are headed to their first Olympic games.
Here are 4 things they use off-duty.
And together, they completed the journey to the 2024 Paris Olympicsthough it wasnt an easy one.
It started almost four years ago when they met at LSU and first started playing together.
It was then that we decided that Paris 2024 was at the top of our list, Kloth says.
Even the director of USA volleyball suggested the two split up.
…
But it was their friendship (thats more like a sisterhood) that kept them together.
We had to seize the moment, Nuss says.
Here are four things Kloth and Nuss rely on when theyre not dominating on the beach.
4 must-haves Taryn Kloth and Kristen Nuss use to succeed off the sand
1.
Their favorite hydration
Kloth and Nuss never leave the house without water.
Being in Louisiana and it being so hot, we never leave without it, Kloth says.
Their favorite hydration products areKaged Electrolytes,Gatorade Zero packetsandPropel Raspberry Lemonade powder.
Drinking plain water sometimes does get old, so having it flavored is ideal, Kloth says.
I drink one of each at least once a day, sometimes twice if its really hot.
…
Were definitely very well hydrated with lots of electrolytes, Nuss says.
DIY massages
The Olympic beach volleyball players train hard on the sand and in the gym.
Well use these products after a hard practice.
Well come home and use them while were watching TV and feeling exhausted, Kloth says.
Ninja Creami
TheNinja Creamiis one of the hottest kitchen appliances on the market right nowand for good reason.
Imagine having a fresh, ice cream shopworthy dessert with the press of a button.
It turns basically anything into ice cream.
So we turn our Fairlife protein shakes into ice cream, Kloth says.
At night we eat our ice cream and sit on the couch in our Normatec boots.
Matching pajamas
Kloth and Nuss dont spend much time apart, besides holidays when visiting family.
Thats when they coincidentally got the idea to start wearing matching pajamas.
When we got back to Louisiana we exchanged presents and they were both pajamas.
Now its a competition tradition for Kloth and Nuss to wear matching pjs on the nights before competition.
They have several different sets, and alternate which pjs to wear each night.
As long as the pjs are silky, soft, and comfortable, Kloth says.
