Who It’s For

A Personal Trainer Who Meets You Where You Are

For people in and around Macclesfield who want a coach in the room, checking every rep and adjusting the plan as we go.

Starting Out

New to training, or coming back after time off. We start from where your fitness is today, at a pace that suits you.

Getting Stronger

Strength and conditioning coached face to face, with your technique checked on every lift.

Training for a Race

Endurance and strength built together, so the gym work supports your running, cycling or triathlon.

What’s Included

What You Get From 1-2-1 Training

Whether you train every week or book one session at a time.

Programming Built for You

Strength, conditioning and endurance work planned round your goals, not a one-size session.

Technique First

I coach and correct every movement in person, so you build strength safely.

Tracking and Reviews

Your progress tracked and reviewed, so you can see what’s improving and what needs work.

Support Between Sessions

Help from me between sessions, and nutrition guidance on the monthly plan from a UESCA certified nutrition coach.

Five stars

“He always makes you feel comfortable and supported, no matter your fitness level.”

I couldn’t recommend Richard enough! He is such a gentle, patient, fun and encouraging personal trainer. He always makes you feel comfortable and supported, no matter your fitness level, and knows how to motivate you without ever making you feel pressured.

Richard brings such a positive energy to every session, and he makes working out something to actually look forward to. He is encouraging, understanding and genuinely cares about helping you progress.

Thank you, Richard, for all your support and encouragement!
