State); 1980-81 (Northeast Louisiana); 1983-84 (Alabama, graduate assistant); 1985-86 (Alabama); 1987-91 (Tampa Bay Buccaneers); 1992-97 (Green Bay Packers).<br>Coach Johnston is ably assisted by Barry Rubin who is in his third year with the Packers. Barry has had 16 years of experience including being the head strength coach at Northeast Louisiana. Coach Johnston and Coach Rubin never sit back and watch their Green Bay players workout. They actively coach every minute. The workout for the day is posted. The players come in and get right to work on the plan.<br>I asked Coach Johnston about the difference between Division I college level and Pro-level of strength and conditioning. 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.<br> Because of Free Agency and Collective Bargaining you see a lot of new players each year. In college you have the players four to five years. The age difference is also a factor. An 18-year old is not the same as a 25-year old.<br> I m going to train multi-joint movement lifts and explosive lifts. Most of this type training is done with free weights. 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. It s my job to teach the players perfect technique and to train smart.<br> I want to come across as someone who wants them to perform at their highest level. If a player sees that you always want what s best, they will respond. I try to serve the players and do the little things that make a difference.<br> We also do plyometrics. We have Plyo Boxes and Plyo Hurdles. We do a number of variations of ground plyos. We teach sprint techniques and have speed and speed endurance days. I really like over-speed training which is done especially in the off-season. We do some parachute training but I like over-speed training a little better. We have a number of devices for over-speed training; some very expensive and some very economical.<br> Another thing I like is sled work. Dragging the sled and doing sled lunges with a sled harness can be great. I don t look at sled work as speed tools but I use them to develop functional strength. <br>The Packers incorporate martial arts training for flexibility, joint mobility and range of motion. They do this two to three times per week in the off-season.  We stretch our players for five minutes before practice,  said Coach Johnston,  but before that we do a lot of functional warm-ups like high knees, waking lunges, butt kicks, etc. We also do the BFS Dot Drill on a regular basis in the off-season. <br>The Packers do Power Pulls which is a Power Clean movement in addition to Dumbt directly under the hips is an advanced concept. Therefore, I want to devote a whole article to that technique at a later date. I will have a 4.2 forty-athlete show you some great drills to more fully understand thi concept.<br><br>8. Your forward leg should initially lift forward, no up. <br><br>The lower leg should hang bef
