36 Years Sober: Dave Kushner on Discipline, Fitness & Mental Strength | Stronger with Don Saladino

Don sits down with guitarist Dave Kushner, best known for his work in Velvet Revolver alongside former Stone Temple Pilots singer Scott Weiland and members of Guns N' Roses, including Slash and Duff McKagan, and goes behind the scenes of the rock 'n' roll lifestyle to explore the physical demands of being a world-class musician. Don and Dave pivot from the stage to the gym, discussing how legendary performers like Slash maintain the stamina required for three-hour high-energy sets. Dave shares his personal approach to staying fit while touring the world, the mental toughness required to sustain 36 years of sobriety, and how training serves as a vital tool for silencing "the voices in the head." From his early days in the LA music scene to his current role as Senior Director at Guitar Center, Dave offers a unique look at how health and fitness have become the foundation for his long-term success and career reinvention. ----------------------------- Sponsored By: Timeline / Mitopure: Get 20% off Mitopure to Target Age-Related Cellular Decline and Promote Anti-Aging and Health Longevity.
