In the past, he played for clubs such as Górnik 09 Mysłowice, Victoria Jaworzno, Ruch Radzionków, Odra Wodzisław and Ruch Chorzów.[1]
After retiring, he received a commemorative jersey with the number “300” from Ruch's management. It was the number of games played in the Ekstraklasa that Grzyb surpassed during the 2011–12 season, and he played a total of 302 games at the highest level of Polish football.
In the 1990s he also played futsal, and won the Polish vice-championship. He made two appearances for Poland national futsal team in matches against Hungary.[2]
He returned to Ruch on 24 April 2017 as an assistant under Krzysztof Warzycha,[3] and left the club a month-and-a-half later.[4] In 2021, he joined Ruch's coaching staff as an assistant and fitness coach for the senior team.[5] In June 2024, he was appointed co-head coach of their reserve team, as well as head of the club's academy.[6] In late August 2024, following the appointment of Dawid Szulczek as the club's manager, Grzyb left his previous roles and re-joined Ruch's technical staff as a fitness coach,[7] before returning to the academy two months later.[8]
