The best Personal Trainer in Lancing

Lancing sits between Worthing and Shoreham on the West Sussex coast, with a long shingle beach, Lancing Manor and the South Downs on the doorstep. I work with Lancing clients at home, at the local leisure centre, and outdoors along the seafront and at Widewater Lagoon.

I'm Richard Stantiford, owner of The Lifestyle Physiologist, and have over 30 years experience in health and fitness. I specialise in 10-Week Body Transformations as well as Cardiac Rehabilitation, Diabetes Management, and Weight Management.

I focus on 'Lifestyle Medicine' (rather than prescription drugs) which may include behaviour change, exercise, rehabilitation, managing stress and dietary improvements.
