Assumption of Risk
I, the undersigned participant, am aware that there are significant risks involved in any physical training regimen. These risks include, but are not limited to: falls and cardiac issues, which can result in serious injury or death due to negligence on the part of myself, employees or agents of Outlast Health and Performance, due to improper use or failure of equipment. Injury may also result simply from the physical training itself.
By its very nature, physical training seeks to have me push beyond my limits in order to produce a physical adaptation by my body. This requires feedback from me to my trainer regarding what is happening with my body. Excessive work can result (in rare cases) in exertional rhabdomyolysis. I should look for signs of excessive soreness, darkened urine, and pain in the kidney areas in the days following a particularly intense workout. While this type of injury is relatively rare, it can occur due to a number of factors, including (but not limited to) genetic predisposition or dehydration that maybe beyond the control of my trainer.
This Waiver and Release of Liability includes, without limitation, injuries which may occur as a result of first aid, emergency treatment, or any other services which are negligently rendered or failed to be rendered by released parties, emergency personnel, or Good Samaritans, or are negligently preventing a Good Samaritan from rendering first aid. I am aware that any of these above mentioned risks may result in serious injury or death to myself and/or my partner(s). I willingly assume full responsibility for any and all risks that I am exposing myself to, and accept full responsibility for any injury or death that may result from participation in any activity or class while training with Outlast Health and Performance, at all locations.
I, the undersigned, acknowledge that I have no physical impairments or pre-existing conditions or illnesses that I know of that will endanger others or myself.
