In this powerful Billy Crudup interview, Billy sits down with longtime friend Don Saladino to explore fitness over 50, exercising for stress management, and the impact training has had on his mental health. Billy Crudup is one of the most respected actors in Hollywood, known for his work on both stage and screen, from Almost Famous to The Morning Show. In this episode of Stronger, Billy and Don discuss the connection between physical fitness and emotional resilience, and how training became a key tool for stress relief while managing the mental toll of performing night after night. Don reflects on their 15-year friendship—starting as Billy’s trainer—and how Billy has learned to prioritize strength, flexibility, and sustainability over “getting ripped fast.” Billy also shares stories from the stage, why he still feels like he’s chasing his best work, and why he has no interest in becoming a producer, despite earning the credit. ----------------------------- Got a question for Don?
