Alec Penix

Bio

Celebrity trainer and author Alec Penix has released his first book SEVEN SUNDAYS in December, 2018. The book, a 43 day devotional, takes readers on a journey of spiritual and physical fulfillment that will help them to better understand who they are on a deeper level rather than what’s seen in the mirror. Over the course of six weeks, readers will work on the “6 Pillars of Purpose” that build up this strength. In SEVEN SUNDAYS, Penix explains the connection between faith and fitness, and shares his success story as well as his clients.

After graduating from the University of Kentucky with a degree in dietetics, Alec moved to Los Angeles. The Michigan native has nearly a decade of experience in the fitness arena and has worked with Olympic Gold Medalist Gabby Douglas, Singer/Songwriter Natasha Beddingfield, Actor/Singer Aaron Tveit, dancers Derek and Julianne Hough to name just a few. He has worked on International Concert Tours, Musical productions, and on set for both television and film to help prepare his clients to look, feel and perform their best. His roster is star-studded with actors, models, musicians, professional athletes, Olympians, dancers, CEOs, film and television executives. As a celebrity trainer, he overcomes a variety of challenges to achieve complex fitness goals and ensure his clients are ready to go on stage or on camera.

Because of his vast knowledge of physical training, Alec is in high demand by all those who wish to undergo a physical transformation. Alec serves clients with every body type, wildly differing lifestyles, and of all ages. He’s trained hometown heroes at the Sheriff’s Department and taken on entire companies as corporate clients. Alec advocates an active lifestyle and competes in charity football games (such as the Celebrity Sweat Flag Football Challenge, which benefits the troops). His numerous television appearances include The Insider, Home & Family, Celebrity page and the publications People, Wingman Magazine, Miami Living and Muscle & Fitness.
In all his endeavors, Alec seeks to help people not only look their best but also feel their best by adopting a healthy lifestyle. Alec believes that spiritual development is a critical element of the physical transformation process because spirituality, as defined by each individual’s personal beliefs, aids in overcoming internal roadblocks. He approaches training by focusing on the interior first and addressing clients’ individual spiritual needs to aid them in transforming their bodies and achieving a healthier lives.
