Celebrity trainer and fitness enthusiast Alec Penix is on a mission to inspire people to think deeper about physical — and spiritual — health. Penix, who trains some well-known names in Hollywood, is a Christian whose faith informs his work, as he helps people reach their hopes, dreams and personal fitness goals.
Penix shared his journey to faith, noting that he found God at one of the darkest moments in his life. He was in Mexico for a wedding and woke up feeling pain, despair and lostness.
That’s when Penix heard a voice that changed everything: “Alec, It is time to become the man I’ve called you to be.” That experience transformed the trainer.
Penix realized that his life was transforming, and that he could help others through a combined focus on faith and fitness.
Now, he’s hoping to encourage fans and readers to go on a similar journey.
“Having goals, having purpose is extremely important to push us out of our box into see that we really are created in God’s image and that we have unlimited potential,” Penix said.
The celebrity trainer is hoping that “Seven Sundays” helps people recognize that human beings are far more than mere physical beings, while also encouraging them to build stronger relationships with those around them.
“I really believe that this book is also about how it allows you to share and connect more with the people around you,” he said.
