Championship Basics with Barry Rubin

Coach Barry Rubin joins me on this episode of Toes On The Line and chats it up about how keeping everything basic has been his bread and butter to his athletes’ success in the NFL, helping his teams very successfully win Division Titles, Conference Titles, and Super Bowl Titles.

Coach Rubin highlights the rookie season shock experienced by incoming players and the major difference between playing in college and playing in the pros. The NFL is a very long season and Coach Rubin’s programming style shifts gears to keep his players motivated as the playoffs approach. We spend some time talking about off season, in season, and post season athlete development programs and Coach Rubin sheds some light on how he progresses his conditioning as well as continues to manipulate his strength program to keep his players motivated. However the biggest factor that motivates the players the most: WINNING.

Strong leadership can do big things for any organization, and Coach Rubin talks about some those qualities he sees in his players, which overall help drive the culture. Personally, I believe a team with strong leadership culture brings home more success. Outside of strength and conditioning, we touched on topics such as how the game has changed from when Coach Rubin first got to the NFL to now. Overall, it was a fun and interesting conversation from an NFL veteran.
