I DESIRE TO USE THE SERVICES OF A PERSONAL TRAINING PROGESSIONAL provided by Laser Sharp Fitness. I understand that working with a personal fitness professional will involve a physical fitness program which may include testing procedures (such as body fat %, circumference, cardiorespiratory, strength, flexibility, and other such testing procedures), aerobic activities (such as treadmill walking/running, bicycle riding, rowing machine exercise, group aerobic activity, swimming and other such activities), calisthenics and weight lifting to improve muscular strength and endurance, and flexibility exercises to improve joint range of motion. I understand that the reaction of the heart, lungs and blood vessel system to such exercise cannot always be predicted with accuracy. I know that during or following exercise there is a risk that I may experience abnormal blood pressure or heart rate, ineffective functioning of the heart, and in rare instances, heart attacks. Use of the weightlifting equipment, and engaging in heavy body calisthenics, can lead to musculoskeletal strains, pain and injury. I also understand that a program of regular exercise for the heart and lungs, muscles, and joints, has many associated benefits. These may include a decrease in body fat, improvement in blood fats and blood pressure, improvement in psychological function and a decrease in risk of heart disease. The amount and degree of benefits experienced will be relative to the adherence of an exercise program based on prescribed amounts of intensity, duration, frequency, progression and types of activity. I have read the above information and I understand the potential risks and benefits of working with a personal fitness professional and I voluntarily agree to assume such risks. In consideration of Laser Sharp Fitness providing me with a personal fitness professional, I, for myself, my heirs and assigns, hereby release and hold harmless Laser Sharp Fitness, and the personal fitness professional from any claims, demands and causes of action of any kind. Further, I hereby release Laser Sharp Fitness and the personal fitness professional from any liability now and in the future relating to any illness, soreness, or injury, however caused, occurring during or after my participation in the exercise program.
