As you can see in her Instagram video, Fuller likes to use a Bosu Ball to stay in shape. Fitness Advisory states that using a bosu ball has a lot of benefits. "Because the BOSU ball is unstable when it is used dome-side down, users are forced to use more muscles, thereby improving overall strength. The use of this unstable platform works muscles that are usually unused during typical workouts. Routine exercises such as lunges, squats, lifts, and push ups can also be more intense when the ball is used. This result is more challenging workouts. along with more effective strength training."

She Drops Alcohol In The Winter
Fuller shared some of her training secrets in an interview with Women's Health. "During the winter I drop alcohol," she revealed. "I get really run down when I drink and I can't afford to miss a training session or have hungover rest days. The training is so brutal that rest days need to be rest days – recovery is key."

She Meal Preps
Fuller tells Women's Health that she likes to meal prep in order to eat healthy when training. "I've learned that I need to prep a lunch box of clean food, otherwise I don't have enough energy to get through a savage 4-hour training session," she explained. "Each day I cram a Tupperwear with quinoa and chicken or tuna and sweet potato. Healthy, starchy carbs keep me going and I'm not fussed about being the one with a packed lunch up the mountain."

In order to compete, Fuller has to handle pressure and stressful situations. She shared how she does so to Women's Health. "I deal with the pressure by making sure I'm ready for anything. Every day the conditions change (people and snow) and I have to be able to adapt and not let it stress me out. I also find prioritizing chill time away from social media with my boyfriend helps."

Fuller revealed to Women's Health that she has learned what her weaknesses are, and how to improve them. "With help from the GB Strength coach, I've zoned in on my weaknesses and tailored my training around theses," she said. "For instance, mobility. I'm not a natural yogi (too slow) but it really helps loosen up my muscles so I can get my body into awkward positions in the air. I now try to include a 20-minute practice on heavy riding days. It's been great for injury prevention."
