Episode 001 - Don Saladino: The Leading Edge of Fitness & Performance

from Speed of Life Podcast · host Derek Hansen

In Episode 001, I have the pleasure of re-connecting with Don Saladino, who was my podcast partner for over seven years.   We circle back to find out what Don is doing now, including hearing about his new “Stronger” podcast project.  Don has famously completed a successful transition from brick-and-mortar fitness facilities – serving many top movie stars – to a digital health and wellness empire.  We hear about his current promotions and communities, as well as how he manages to stay in tip-top shape given his demanding schedule.  In many ways, he is pursuing a high speed of life, while maintaining a high quality of life.  He is constantly developing new partnerships with various corporate brands, while also having more than enough time for family.  Don Saladino is a globally recognized performance coach and health entrepreneur who has spent more than 3 decades helping individuals, teams, and organizations raise their standards and achieve sustainable success. Known for transforming how people approach fitness, resilience, and long-term performance, Don has coached some of the world’s highest performers and built a community that spans nearly 100 countries. His career includes founding two New York City performance facilities, launching one of the earliest digital training platforms, and advising top wellness companies on strategy and development. Don’s work blends science-based training, practical leadership principles, and real-world experience to help audiences build consistency, elevate their habits, and perform at the highest level.  You can find out more information on Don Saladino below:  Instagram:                   https://www.instagram.com/donsaladino/  Website:                      https://www.donsaladino.com    You can reach Derek Hansen at the following locations:  Websiteshttp://www.SprintCoach.comhttps://www.runningmechanics.com/Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/derekmhansen/YouTubehttp://youtube.com/derekmhansen Twitter/Xhttps://x.com/DerekMHansenLinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/derekmhansen/
