Lang Ping

National Hero and Head Coach
USA Women’s National Volleyball Team

Nicknamed the “Iron Hammer,” Lang Ping is considered by many to be a national hero in China. She was a member of the Chinese Women's National Team—winners of an Olympic gold medal at the 1984 Summer Olympics, a World Championship crown in 1982, and World Cup titles in 1981 and 1985.

In 1995, Ping became the head coach of the Chinese national team and eventually guided the squad to the silver medal at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta, Georgia. In 2005, she signed on to be the head coach of the USA Women’s National Volleyball Team, and that is where her experience with TAHITIAN NONI Juice began.

She explained, “I started using TAHITIAN NONI® Juice in August of this year at the Women’s Volleyball World Championships. I continued to drink the juice every day, and before long I felt a big difference.”

“I use TAHITIAN NONI Handipacks while traveling because they are so convenient and the one-liter bottles while at training camp. I usually work 12 hours a day, and I used to be so exhausted when I went home at night that I couldn’t do anything. But now, after drinking TAHITIAN NONI Juice, I go home and still have energy to read the newspaper and watch TV. I’ve also noticed that TAHITIAN NONI Juice has helped curb the effects of stress, and that’s important because the stress and pressure of these big tournaments is incredible.”

Ping uses other TAHITIAN NONI products as well. “By taking the vitamins and minerals provided in the Tahiti Trim® Plan 40® Women’s Supplement Pack twice a day, I feel really good. This gives me the nutrition I need as I work long hours each day. There’s no way you can eat all of the foods you need to eat every day. So, as I take the vitamins along with TAHITIAN NONI Juice, I feel I have more energy to put into training.”

Many of Ping’s games are broadcast on television, so she uses TAHITIAN NONI TePoemä facial products to keep her looking her best. “I want to appear just as lively as the athletes,” she stated. And if you’ve ever seen her on television, you know that she does.

We are excited to have Ping as a spokesperson for TAHITIAN NONI products, and we look forward to many wins from Ping and the USA’s Women’s National Volleyball team in the near future.
