WHat is RP FITNESS?

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 coaching — developing officers as an instructor in physical training and tactics, while coaching weightlifting and functional fitness outside of police work.

In 2016 I moved to Sweden and went full-time into coaching, working as Head Coach at two CrossFit gyms in Stockholm. Over time I realised that my true passion lies in helping people discover their own version of fitness. In 2022, I founded RP Fitness.

I've always been motivated by helping people become more capable — giving them 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 — leaving you stronger, more confident and better equipped to do more of what you love.

The greatest reward is seeing people discover what they're capable of. That doesn't come from quick fixes, but from consistent coaching, sustainable habits and training built around the individual. That's the philosophy behind RP Fitness: helping people build strength for life.
