Dave Redding
Assistant Strength & Conditioning
24th NFL Season
Second Packers Season
Dave Redding begins his 24th season in the NFL, his second year as part of the Green Bay Packers' strength and conditioning program.
Redding, who served as the Packers' strength and conditioning coordinator in 2009, will assist new strength and conditioning coordinator Mark Lovat this season.
Redding joined the Packers on Feb. 3, 2009, returning to the NFL after a two-year hiatus as a private nutritional and fitness consultant. He has worked as a strength and conditioning coach for four other NFL teams - the San Diego Chargers (2002-06), the Washington Redskins (2001), the Kansas City Chiefs (1989-97) and the Cleveland Browns (1982-88).
The head coach at all four previous stops was Marty Schottenheimer, who had both Redding and Head Coach Mike McCarthy on his staff with the Chiefs in the mid-1990s. Redding's assistant strength and conditioning coach on those Kansas City teams was Russ Ball, the Packers' current vice president of football administration and player finance.
At his most recent NFL stop prior to coming to Green Bay, San Diego, the 57-year-old Redding was named the NFL's strength and conditioning coach of the year in 2006 following the Chargers' 14-2 season. Also that year, he was inducted into the USA Strength and Conditioning Coaches Hall of Fame.
From 1998-2000, during his other brief absence from the NFL, Redding worked as the national sports director for AdvoCare, a Dallas-based nutrition company.
When Redding broke into the NFL with the Browns in 1982, he became that team's first-ever strength coach. Prior to entering the NFL ranks, Redding served as the University of Missouri's strength coach from 1978-81, where Ball was also the first assistant coach he ever hired.
In 1977, Redding became the first-ever strength coach at Washington State, where he also coached defensive ends, after beginning his coaching career in 1976 as a graduate assistant at his alma mater, Nebraska, where he earned a degree in physical education.
During Redding's playing career with the Cornhuskers, he was a three-year letterman as a defensive end from 1972-75 under legendary coaches Bob Devaney and Tom Osborne. Redding's senior season of 1975 produced the first of Osborne's 13 Big Eight/Big 12 Conference titles.
Born in Holdenville, Okla., Redding is single and has a daughter, Taylor Reta. He enjoys hunting, fishing and playing golf.
