Biography

Hired on Feb. 22, 2011, Zac Woodfin enters his first season with the Packers as strength and conditioning assistant. His primary duties include designing, organizing and implementing strength and conditioning programs as well as speed and agility sessions.

Prior to coming to Green Bay, Woodfin served as a performance specialist at Athletes’ Performance in Los Angeles since 2007, where he trained various NFL, NBA, MLB, and Olympic athletes.  His main focus was NFL veterans in the offseason as well as college athletes preparing for the NFL Combine.  Woodfin also gained experience training tactical athletes of the United States Special Forces while at Athletes’ Performance.

Before that, Woodfin worked at his alma mater, the University of Alabama at Birmingham, as well as the University of Alabama, in 2007. At UAB, he assisted with the head football, men’s and women’s basketball, as well as the track and field programs. Woodfin was a volunteer assistant for Alabama’s football team, assisting the head strength coach with the team’s in-season program.

Woodfin got his start in the field as an intern at UAB in 2006 when he helped supervise the speed, agility and strength training for the football team. He also interned briefly at Athletes’ Performance in ’07.

As a player, Woodfin entered the NFL in April 2005 with the Packers as a non-drafted free agent linebacker out of UAB. He was released by Green Bay in the final roster cutdown, but spent the first seven games of the season on the Packers' practice squad. Woodfin also spent time on the practice squads of New Orleans and Baltimore in ’05, and was signed to the Ravens’ active roster toward the end of the season. He was also with the Houston Texans briefly in the summer of 2007.

Woodfin was selected in the first round of the NFL Europe Draft by Frankfurt in 2007, and started for a Galaxy team that advanced to the World Bowl that season.

Woodfin finished his career at UAB as the school’s all-time leading tackler with 372, a mark that still stands today, and earned first-team All-Conference USA honors as a junior and senior. He recorded a school-record 149 tackles in 2003, topping the mark he had set in 2002 (120).

The 28-year-old Woodfin holds a B.S. in exercise science from UAB. He attended Prattville (Ala.) High School, where he earned all-state and all-metro honors as a senior. A four-time letterman, he also played fullback and tight end in high school.
