RICHARD
Richard Agar training at PureGym Alfreton in Derbyshire

COACH FIRST.
TEACHER ALWAYS.

Richard Agar is a Level 3 certified personal trainer in Alfreton, specialising in weight loss, muscle tone, and strength development. Based at PureGym Alfreton on Nottingham Road, he serves Alfreton, Ripley, and Riddings — both in person and online.

Health and fitness has been the through-line of Richard's life — first as a secondary school PE teacher shaping how teenagers moved, then as a rugby player learning what his own body was capable of, and now as a coach turning everything he knows into plans that work for everyone else.

That teaching background matters. It means he knows how to break a complicated movement into something you'll actually remember on Monday morning. It means he watches your form like it's an exam — because the difference between progress and injury usually lives in the small stuff. And it means when you say "I don't get it," he hears opportunity, not frustration.

"Whether you're looking to build muscle, shed some pounds or just feel that bit better in yourself — let's get to work."

YOUR QUESTIONS,
STRAIGHT ANSWERS.

Do I need any gym experience to train with Richard?+
No, you don't need any gym experience to train with Richard. He coaches everyone from total beginners to advanced lifters, building your confidence and skill from session one. Most people who come to him have never set foot in a gym before — that is exactly who his coaching is built for.
What's the first session like?+
Your first session is a free, no-pressure consultation. Richard sits down with you to understand your goals, your starting point, your schedule, and any injuries or concerns. You'll leave with a clear plan for what's next — no commitment to sign up.
How quickly will I see results?+
Most clients notice strength and energy gains within 2 to 3 weeks, with visible body composition changes typically appearing from week 6. Richard tracks every session so progress is measured, not guessed.
Can Richard coach me online if I'm not based in Alfreton?+
Yes. Richard offers online coaching for clients anywhere in the UK. You'll get a tailored programme, ongoing form checks via video, weekly check-ins, and direct WhatsApp support — same standard as in-person, just remote.
What does a typical week of training look like?+
It depends on your goal and lifestyle. Most clients train 3 to 4 times a week — a mix of strength work, conditioning, and sessions you can do alone using the plan Richard builds for you. Everything is structured around what fits your week, not the other way round.
What if I've got an injury or health condition?+
Bring it up at your free consultation. Richard's PE teaching background means he's coached people through every kind of starting point — joint issues, back problems, post-surgery recovery, and beyond. Every plan is built around what your body can do today.
