Chris Drury and Angela Ruggiero, key members of the US Men's and Women's hockey teams respectively, spent this past off-season training at Athletes' Performance. Performance specialist Jennifer Noiles recently spoke with the New York Times about what it was like working with both athletes:
"Angela and Chris dedicated their off-season to developing their speed, their strength, and their cardiovascular fitness," Noiles said...
Angela’s training for the hill climb is legendary. Every one of us still talks about it to this day. She’d go so hard and so long, I thought she was going to fall off the treadmill. But she just kept pushing and pushing and pushing herself...
Chris trained relentlessly," she added. "His work ethic is incredible. He would come to me and say, ‘You know something, I feel like I need to do a little bit more.’ And he’d do it.”
