Meet Richard

Your coach is Richard Patman, the RP in RP Fitness. A British and world champion powerlifter, he has been coaching for over fifteen years and writes every programme himself, not AI, not templates, just proven, effective training built around you.

Richard also runs the injury clinic at RP Fitness, with years of sports massage and treatment experience behind him. If you’re carrying a niggle or working around an old injury, you’re in expert hands: your programme is built with it in mind from day one.

When you join RP Fitness Online, you’re working directly with Richard. He reviews your progress, answers your questions and adjusts your training as you develop. This is real coaching, not a cookie-cutter plan.
