State); 1980-81 (Northeast Louisiana); 1983-84 (Alabama, graduate assistant); 1985-86 (Alabama); 1987-91 (Tampa Bay Buccaneers); 1992-97 (Green Bay Packers).</P> <P>Coach Johnston is ably assisted by Barry Rubin who is in his third year with the Packers.&nbsp; Barry has had 16 years of experience including being the head strength coach at Northeast Louisiana.&nbsp; Coach Johnston and Coach Rubin never sit back and watch their Green Bay players workout.&nbsp; They actively coach every minute.&nbsp; The workout for the day is posted.&nbsp; The players come in and get right to work on the plan.</P> <P>I asked Coach Johnston about the difference between Division I college level and Pro-level of strength and conditioning.&nbsp; Coach Johnston replied, "You have to do a lot better job selling your players on your program, they have got to believe in your program to do it properly.</P> <P>"Because of Free Agency and Collective Bargaining you see a lot of new players each year.&nbsp; In college you have the players four to five years.&nbsp; The age difference is also a factor.&nbsp; An 18-year old is not the same as a 25-year old.</P> <P>"I'm going to train multi-joint movement lifts and explosive lifts.&nbsp; Most of this type of training is done with free weights.&nbsp; Some people may question the safety factor of my philosophy, but to me there is a certain risk when you train to win and to be a thoroughbred.&nbsp; It's my job to teach the players perfect technique and to train smart. </P> <P>"I want to come across as someone who wants them to perform at their highest level.&nbsp; If a player sees that you always want what's best, they will respond.&nbsp; I try to serve the players and do the little things that make a difference.</P> <P>"We also do plyometrics.&nbsp; We have Plyo Boxes and Plyo Hurdles.&nbsp; We do a number of variations of ground plyos.&nbsp; We teach sprint techniques and have speed and speed endurance days.&nbsp; I really like over-speed training which is done especially in the off-season.&nbsp; We do some parachute training but I like over-speed training a little better.&nbsp; We have a number of devices for over-speed training; some very expensive and some very economical.</P> <P>"Another thing I like is sled work.&nbsp; Dragging the sled and doing sled lunges with a sled harness can be great.&nbsp; I don't look at sled work as speed tools but I use them to develop functional strength."</P> <P>The Packers incorporate martial arts training for flexibility, joint mobility and range of motion.&nbsp;&nbsp;They do this two to three times per week i
