My name is Alex Rasmussen and I am the owner and founder of Sweat with Alex (formerly Permission Fitness!). I am SO happy you are here.

I am originally from San Diego, CA where I grew up surrounded by surfers, bikers, runners & spent weekends at sports games and the beach. From a young age, I fell in love with lacrosse which led me to Vanderbilt University. At Vandy, I played Division 1 Women’s Lacrosse for four years. That love of movement led me to become a personal trainer. I currently live in Nashville, TN with my husband!

I am a NASM Certified Personal Trainer & Nutrition Coach. My true passion lies in helping women feel strong, confident and capable both in and out of the gym. I believe fitness and nutrition should be a part of your life, not control it. I want women to learn that strength training doesn’t need to be scary!

So, let’s sweat together!

xx,

Alex
