My name is Rich Palmer. I’ve always been driven to help people, which led me to serve as a police officer in London for 13 years. During that time, I began my coaching journey - developing officers as an instructor in physical training and tactics, while also coaching weightlifting and functional fitness outside of my police work.
In 2017, I moved to Sweden and transitioned into full-time coaching. I went on to work as Head Coach at two CrossFit gyms in Stockholm. Over time, I realised my true passion lies in helping individuals discover their own version of fitness.
In 2022, I founded RP Fitness.

I've always been motivated by helping people become more capable. Coaching allows me to do that by giving people the knowledge, support, and confidence to achieve things they once didn't think were possible—whether that's building healthy habits, recovering from injury, chasing a personal best, or simply feeling stronger every day.
I believe fitness should enhance your life, not consume it. It should leave you stronger, more confident, and better equipped to do more of what you love—whether that's exploring the outdoors, reaching a performance goal, or feeling your best day to day.
The greatest reward is seeing clients discover what they're capable of. That doesn't come from quick fixes, but from consistent coaching, sustainable habits, and training that's built around the individual.
That's the philosophy behind RP Fitness: helping people build strength for life.

Täby Centrum
I offer personal training in the heart of Täby Centrum at JPs Gym, located within Sway Dance Studio. It’s a modern, calm, and private training environment, just seconds from the centre.
Train anywhere
With remote coaching, you can train wherever suits you best - at a gym, at home, or on the move.
In your home
If you’re based in northern Stockholm and prefer to train at home, I come to you. Sessions can be taken in your home gym, or I can bring the equipment needed.
