Richard has been training our 13 year old competitive swimmer for 6 weeks now and we are so glad we found him! Since starting we have seen not just strength improve but focus and confidence too. Every exercise is thoughtfully planned with clear impact in mind and we have just started to see improvements in his times in the water as a result.

I was given 10 sessions with Richard for my 40th Birthday after struggling to get back into a fitness routine for sometime. Richard's approach was brilliant and really gave me confidence and drive to carry on. After having some previous injuries Richard was super flexible in his sessions and tailored the workouts to help strengthen my body without putting too much strain on my back. Richard always explained the workouts and reasoning behind them to help me understand why I was having repeat injuries and what I could do to prevent them. Was a great experience

Have been training with Richard for 8 months now to prepare for an extreme event, and started getting results fairly quickly and kept on progressing with excellent results. I completed the event with ease. Richard is very informative and explains everything clearly which makes the training a lot more interesting and rewarding. I have another extreme event planned for next year and I have no intention of stopping training given the results I’ve seen so far. I have used several trainers over the years and I didn’t get the same results as I have done with Richard. You will not be disappointed and I highly recommend Richard if you want to achieve your goals.

I can't recommend Richard enough! From day one, he’s been incredibly supportive and motivating, always pushing me to achieve my fitness goals while making sure I stay safe and injury-free. His tailored approach to my workouts has made a huge difference, and I’ve seen noticeable improvements in my strength, endurance, and overall fitness. He takes the time to explain each exercise and make sure I'm performing everything with proper form, which has really helped me build confidence in the gym. Whether you're just starting out or looking to take your fitness to the next level, Richard is the perfect trainer to help you get there. Thank you Richard for your ongoing support!

Highly recommend Richard as a personal trainer and his gym has everything you need to exercise. He listens to my goals and tailors the exercises for me. He takes time to understand what I am capable of and sets exercises that I can cope with but also challenge myself. He gives detailed explanation on exercises, diet and the body and in the 6 sessions I have had so far I have learnt a lot from him. He has a lovely manner and has given me the confidence to exercise on my own. For me booking personal training with Richard has been a great investment.

What my clients say

R from Horley

I have only been with Richard for a short while, nevertheless it goes with saying this guy is extraordinary! He is a great motivator and he takes your goals on as if they were his own, not to mention he has great knowledge and to top it off I am seeing great results in such a short time frame. I would highly recommend him to all!.

J from Horley

Thanks for all the great training you provided, I am sooooo much stronger…really improved my strength and flexibility and I really appreciate all your encouragement. I don’t think I could have achieved any more !

C from Reigate

Richard has proved to be a key constituent in my personal training programme over the past 18 months. His individually derived programme, professional encouragement and sheer variety of exercise make for a wholly fulfilling workout. Highly recommended.

P from Horley

After years of yo yo dieting I decided to get in shape and lose weight in a more healthy way whilst also getting fitter. Richards programme has done exactly what he said when I first met him. 7 weeks in and one stone down! Feeling great, eating healthier but still enjoying my food. Looking forward to the next 7 weeks! Thanks Richard.

P from Horley

I really enjoyed working with Richard. He pushed me and motivated me when I needed it and knew exactly how to support my weight loss. I have also suffered most of my life with neck problems and with Richards hard work this really helped improve mobility again to the point where I was often pain free for long periods. I would highly recommend Richard if you need that extra motivation and support. You will definitely see the results you want.

L from Horley

Thanks so much for all your training over the last year and a bit ! I’m feeling fitter than ever and will definitely keep it up when I’m in Ghana.

J from Horley

Thanks for all the great training you provided, I am sooooo much stronger…really improved my strength and flexibility and I really appreciate all your encouragement. I don’t think I could have achieved any more !

B from Horley

Richard has been training me in his personal gym for 9 months now and taught me a lot about physical fitness and nutrition. Over this time I have lost weight, gained muscle, look more toned and feel more confident. If you are looking for a great personal trainer then I would highly recommend Richard.

S from Horley

…I’ve enjoyed the training a lot and can see my body is responding, so beyond Tough Mudder I would like to continue training going forwards…

J from Langshot

I have always been a fairly active person but Richard has the experience and knowledge to taylor a training programme to your specific needs. I feel much stronger and fitter than when I first started and always look forward to my sessions. If you’re thinking about Personal training then give Richard a go, he’ll motivate you to change your lifestyle for the better!

O and S from Horley

My wife and I have been training with Richard for over a year. During this time, we have felt the fittest over a long term, lost weight and improved overall fitness. Richard is extremely motivating and focussed. He is also great with little details about fitness outside the gym. Training with him is a great pleasure!

D from Reigate

…six weeks into my training with Richard and I can honestly say it is the best investment in myself I have ever made. I have more energy, I’m stronger and getting fitter every day. I look forward to the sessions and always come out feeling energised and positive. Richard’s advice is down to earth and practical – even for a busy working mum of three. If you are wondering whether personal training is for you. I would say, give Richard a try – you won’t regret it for a minute!

W from Caterham

I came to Richard with the goal of changing my physique. I’m pleased to say that having committed to following personal workouts and nutritional advice from Richard, I’m well on my way to reaching my goal. My muscle size and definition has increased dramatically. This in turn has changed my view of my body and confidence. I get comments from friends and family about the changes, which keep me motivated and makes the effort I’ve put in so worth while, it’s hard to put into words. Richards approach and private training facility has been invaluable for me in getting here.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I come and speak to you before deciding to start training with you?

Yes. Prior to starting work with any client, I carry out a detailed (FREE) assessment. This includes discussing your current health/fitness, diet/nutrition, goals and timescales etc. Assessments typically take 45 minutes.

Will you weigh me?

If you want me to. I can carry out a full body analysis upon request; weight, body fat, BMI, BMR.

I undertsand that weighing can be uncomfortable for some clients, so it's entirely up to you. However, it is a great motivator and key measure of progress, if weight loss is your goal.

Will you design a custom training plan for me?

Yes. I design training plans usually working to a 6-12 week schedule with goals and targets set along the way to keep you motivated and focused.  When we complete the plan, we'll assess how it's gone and repeat as required to reach your final goal/s.

How long do your training sessions last?

Training sessions are 55 minutes long.

Can I pay per session or do I have to pay for a package?

Sure, you can pay per session if you wish or I do a course of 6 sessions, to save you money, when paid in advance. Package fees are payable on or before the first session.

See prices

How can I pay you?

Will you give me a diet/eating plan?

No.  I'm not a nutritonist or GP (the only professionals legally allowed to tell you 'exactly' what to eat).  However, your diet and nutrition is very important to every health/fitness goal, so we will cover it in some detail.  If your goal is to lose weight, then we will discuss how you should plan to eat in order to achieve weight loss.  Likewise, if you want to gain muscle and size, I'll tell you how you should plan your meals to do this.
