Dr. David Minkoff isn't just a seasoned Ironman triathlete—he's also leading the race in biohacking and personalized healthcare. With 43 Ironman finishes, including eight at the World Championships, Dr. Minkoff knows firsthand the importance of endurance and peak physical conditioning. But his journey goes beyond the finish line and dives deep into holistic medicine and innovative health solutions.


Beyond the finish line, Dr. Minkoff's passion for understanding the body's genetic blueprint has reshaped how we approach health. In an interview for the "Biohack Yourself" documentary, he emphasized the pivotal role of tailored health programs designed around individual genetics. It's about fine-tuning—like adjusting your stride in a race—to reach your full potential and prevent chronic conditions. It's a strategy that mirrors his own path, from his early days specializing in pediatrics and infectious diseases to his current role as a leader in integrative medicine.

His passion for Ironman began in 1982 after witnessing a dramatic finish in Kona, Hawaii, instilling a pivotal moment of inspiration. After witnessing a dramatic finish, encapsulating a powerful display of endurance and determination, it struck a chord with Dr. Minkoff. He and his best friend, both moved by what they saw, made a pact to participate in the Ironman themselves. From that moment, Dr. Minkoff dedicated himself to rigorous training while balancing his medical career with the demands of preparing for one of the most challenging endurance events in the world.


With a family history of heart disease and obesity, Dr. Minkoff recognized early on how genetics influence health outcomes, motivating his belief in biohacking to optimize individual biology. His philosophy emphasizes lifestyle choices and following methods that are right for your own personal genetic makeup to achieve peak health.

Fast forward to the mid-1990s, another pivotal moment reshaped Dr. Minkoff's professional trajectory. It was then that his wife, Sue, sparked his interest in nutrition and biohacking. Together, they were driven by a shared commitment to address the underlying causes of health issues. Integrating these principles into his medical practice, Dr. Minkoff identified environmental toxins, nutritional deficiencies, and structural imbalances as contributors to chronic conditions. His goal was not just to treat symptoms but to prevent diseases altogether.

This approach laid the foundation for LifeWorks Wellness Center, founded in Clearwater, Florida, in 1997 with Sue Minkoff, RN. At LifeWorks, they champion a holistic approach that uncovers and resolves root health issues, promoting true healing and wellness. Dr. Minkoff's holistic approach extends to his advocacy for biohacking technologies that fine-tune the body's functions, supporting athletes and individuals alike in achieving peak performance and longevity.
