Participation Terms & Conditions
1. Purpose and Explanation of Fitness Assessments & Physical Activity. The selection of exercises and the intensity of the physical exercise will be deemed appropriate based on your health history and current level of fitness.
2. Risk and Discomforts. There are inherent risks associated with any form of physical activity. Training may result in acute muscle and/or joint pain, pulled muscles, brief changes in blood pressure, light headedness, dizziness, delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS), more chronic conditions such as tendonitis, fast or slow irregular heart rhythm, abnormal blood pressure changes, light headedness, dizziness, fainting, chest pain, and other discomforts. Any type of physical activity may in rare instances lead to heart attack, stroke or death, but this is unusual, especially in participants free of known coronary heart disease (CHD), free of any signs or symptoms of CHD, and with few major risk factors of CHD. Training should be modified or postponed if injury is present or if pain or symptoms persist.
3. Responsibilities of the Participant. It is important that you fully disclose your personal health history, any medications you are taking, and any symptoms you may be experiencing during exercise. Such symptoms would include joint pain, irregular heart rhythm, tightness or pressure in your chest, unusual shortness of breath, light headedness, dizziness and the like. It is also important that you adhere to the recommendations of your instructor especially with regard to the choice and intensity of exercises you perform. You should not exceed the recommended exercise intensity (as measured by weight lifted or exercise heart rate) and you should not exercise when you are injured, sick or not otherwise feeling well.
