VIRTUAL PERSONAL TRAINING — RELEASE OF LIABILITY AND INFORMED CONSENT
Required of all clients before beginning virtual personal training sessions with Sara Broome.
1. Voluntary Participation. I am voluntarily participating in virtual personal training sessions with Sara Broome ("the Trainer"), conducted remotely via video conferencing platforms including but not limited to Zoom and FaceTime. I understand my participation is entirely voluntary, and that I may discontinue at any time.
2. Physician Consultation. I have been advised to consult my physician or other qualified healthcare provider before beginning any new exercise program. I represent that I have either done so, or have voluntarily chosen to proceed without doing so, and I accept full responsibility for that choice.
3. Assumption of Risk. I understand that physical exercise carries inherent risks, including but not limited to muscle strain, joint injury, falls, cardiovascular events, and in rare cases, serious injury or death. I voluntarily assume all such risks of participation, whether known or unknown, and acknowledge that no warranty or guarantee of safety, results, or outcome has been made.
4. Disclosure of Health Information. I represent that I have disclosed to the Trainer, accurately and to the best of my knowledge, all medical conditions, injuries, surgeries, medications, pregnancies, and physical limitations relevant to my participation in exercise. I agree to update the Trainer immediately if any of this information changes.
5. Nature of Virtual Training. I understand that virtual personal training is conducted remotely, and that the Trainer is not physically present to provide hands-on assistance, spotting, or emergency response. I accept that the remote format places inherent limitations on the Trainer's ability to assess my form, my environment, and my physical state, and I agree to follow all instructions, modifications, and safety guidance to the best of my ability. I am responsible for ensuring my training environment is safe, that I have adequate space, that any equipment I use is in good working condition, and that I am physically able to perform the movements as instructed. If at any point during a session I feel pain, dizziness, shortness of breath, or any other concerning symptom, I will stop immediately and inform the Trainer.
6. Not Medical Advice. I understand that the Trainer is a NASM Certified Personal Trainer, Corrective Exercise Specialist, and Weight Loss Specialist, and is not acting as a licensed medical, mental health, or nutrition professional. The training, programming, and any wellness or nutrition guidance provided are for educational and fitness purposes only, and do not constitute medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. I will consult appropriate healthcare professionals for any medical concerns.
7. Release of Liability. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I hereby release, waive, and discharge Sara Broome, The Cancer Comeback Club, BHH, and any associated entities ("Released Parties") from any and all claims, liabilities, demands, actions, and causes of action arising out of or related to my participation in virtual personal training, including any caused by the ordinary negligence of the Released Parties.
8. Indemnification. I agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Released Parties from any loss, liability, damage, or cost they may incur due to my participation in virtual personal training.
9. Acknowledgment. I have read this Release of Liability and Informed Consent in its entirety, understand its terms, and agree to them freely and voluntarily.
