Liability Release and Informed Consent

FOR EXERCISE PROGRAMS INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO 1:1 PERSONAL TRAINING, SEMI-PRIVATE TRAINING, AND GROUP TRAINING SESSIONS

I have been informed and acknowledge that Sydney Sherman makes no claims as to medical results, which can or may be obtained through participation in an exercise program.

I understand that Sydney Sherman will not be responsible for suggesting nor providing any medical treatment to participants. Participants should rely only upon advice given by a licensed professional or their own physician and not by Sydney Sherman. I consent to the administration of any immediate resuscitation measures deemed advisable by my trainer or other qualified personnel.

I represent that I have either (a) been given my physician’s permission to participate in fitness activity, or (b) decided to voluntarily participate in an exercise program and have accepted voluntarily all risks related to the program without the approval of my physician. I represent that I am not aware of any medical or physical condition that would prevent me from participating in an exercise program or from using equipment or facilities or would involve a serious health risk to me.  I have informed, and agree to keep informed fully, Sydney Sherman of any physical medical condition or disability that would prevent or jeopardize my participation in an exercise program.

I have been advised and understand that participation in an exercise program presents some unavoidable risk of injury, especially to people who have preexisting injuries, illness, or medical disabilities. I recognize that participation in an exercise program may cause short-term aggravation of some symptoms, feelings of tiredness, lightheadedness, increased energy, mood changes, and other effects.  I understand that I should stop exercising immediately if I detect any pain, dizziness or discomfort during the session.

I affirm that I am of legal age or am a parent or adult guardian representing a minor and freely agreeing to participate in an exercise program by submitting my registration or purchasing a training package. 

I voluntarily register for an exercise program evidencing my acceptance of these provisions.
