The Western Bulldogs endured their toughest session of the pre-season with two-hour slog at Ocean Grove beach.
The torturous session included boxing, runs up the sand dunes and various strengthening exercises.
Fitness chief Bill Davoren said it was pleasing every player on the club’s list was available to participate in some form of training as they attempt to improve their fitness levels ahead of next season.
"It’s going to be a pretty tough, pretty solid sort of a session," Davoren said.
"It’s great that all the guys are doing something, so everyone’s in training."
Injury-ravaged defender Tom Williams and strong-willed tagger Liam Picken had been among the most impressive through the pre-season, Davoren said.
