In this episode of Dave Tate's Table Talk, we're joined by Alex Kikel, also known as The Prep Coach—a leading figure in the world of human optimization, performance enhancement, and health restoration. With a Master's degree in Injury Prevention and Performance Enhancement and a background in Exercise Science, Alex brings a powerful blend of academic knowledge and real-world coaching experience to the table.

Alex launched The Prep Coach during his college years on bodybuilding forums and has since grown it into a respected coaching brand, working with a wide range of clients—from Olympians and professional athletes (NFL, NHL, NBA, MLB, MLS) to physique competitors, biohackers, longevity, enthusiasts, and individuals recovering from dysfunction and chronic illness.

Known for his deep understanding of peptides, nootropics, biomechanics, and pharmacokinetics, Alex's protocols are designed to enhance both physical and cognitive performance. Whether you're a high-level athlete or just looking to upgrade your healthspan, this conversation offers cutting-edge insights on what's possible through science-based training and recovery.
