Birthday

Year

I understand and agree that a 24/7 gym membership at The Fit is a special membership based on trust and is a privilege, which can be taken away for a violation of rules. As a gym member, I agree to abide by all gym membership rules and 24/7 membership rules, which will be posted at the facility, website and may be amended from time to time at the sole discretion of the gym.

The additional rules below apply to a 24/7 membership:

- Access key for a 24/7 membership included (replacement card $100)

- Card sharing is strictly prohibited and will result in immediate loss of membership; card sharing is viewed by ownership as stealing services § Only active account members will be allowed entry

-Pre-approved 24/7 members under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an approved member parent until they reach the age of 18


I agree that improper unauthorized use of the facility may result in member suspension or cancellation. I agree not to let anyone use my card for any reason, and I agree to report any situation that appears to be card sharing to the gym staff. A security "tailgate" system has been installed to monitor and record instances of "tailgating". I understand that one act of card sharing will result in immediate membership suspension or termination. The gym reserves the right to suspend or cancel the rights, privileges and membership of any member whose actions are detrimental to the use, safety, and enjoyment of the facilities.

Dress Code and Decency Policy:

- Sneakers, socks, athletic pants, shorts and t-shirts are considered appropriate gym attire

- Shirts must be worn at all times. The practice of wearing a t- shirt is for sanitary reasons to reduce skin contact with facility equipment

- Clothing must not contain offensive wording, slogans, pictures nor be revealing or excessively suggestive

- Jeans are not permitted. Jeans often have studs, rivets and zippers which may damage the fabric or compromise a member’s safety

- Foot ware must be worn at all times. No bare feet, socks only (except during certain group exercise classes), street shoes, sandals, open-toe shoes and boots are not permitted

- Cursing, swearing and the use of foul language are prohibited

- Harassment in any form, and for any reason, whether predicated on age, gender, race, religion or other factors is strictly prohibited Initial your acceptance to abide by the Dress Code and Decency Policy.

Outside/Non-staff Personal Training Policy:

For business and liability reasons, personal training is offered by staff only to eligible members. No outside training, coaching or instructing is permitted by a member, whether for financial gain or otherwise.

No Supervision

I understand that I am purchasing a membership at a 24/7 facility that allows access at any time. As such, I am aware that there will be no supervision or assistance except during staffed hours. Staffed hours may change at the sole discretion of the gym. I am aware that if I get injured, become unconscious, suffer a stroke or heart attack or any other medical emergency or event that there will likely be no one to respond to my

emergency and that the gym has no duty to provide assistance to me while I am at the gym. I understand that even though the gym is equipped with surveillance cameras, these record, but are not monitored continuously; help will not be available during non-staffed hours.

Acknowledgement of Risk and Waiver of Liability


I voluntarily assume the risk of injury, accident, death, loss, cost or damage to my person or property which might arise from my use of the gym, and I agree to hold harmless and release the gym and all affiliated corporations, and its officers, directors, board members, agents, employees, representatives, executors, and all others from any and all liability. I also release all of those mentioned and any others acting on their behalf from any responsibility or liability for any injury or damage to myself including

those caused by the negligent act or omission of any of those mentioned or others acting on their behalf or in any way arising out of or connected with my participation in any activities or the use of any equipment at the gym during staffed or non-staffed hours.

Informed Consent

General Statement of Program Objectives and Procedures I understand that a physical fitness program may include exercises to build the cardio-

respiratory system (heart and lungs), the musculoskeletal system (muscle endurance, strength and flexibility), and to improve body composition (decrease of body fat in individuals needing to lose fat, with an increase in muscle and bone). Exercise may include aerobic activities (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.Description of Potential Risks I understand that the reaction of the heart, lung, and blood vessel system to such exercise cannot always be predicted with accuracy. I know there is a risk of certain abnormal changes occurring during or during exercise, which may include abnormalities of blood pressure or heart rate, in effect of functioning of the heart, and in rare instances heart attacks. Use of the weight lifting equipment, and engaging in heavy body calisthenics, can lead to musculoskeletal strains, pain, and injury if adequate warm-up, gradual progression, and safety procedures are not

followed:


(PARQ) Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire Regular physical activity is fun and healthy, and increasingly more people are starting to become more active every day. Becoming more active is very safe for most people. However, some people should check with their Doctor before they start becoming much more physically active.


If you are planning to become much more physically active than you are now, start by answering the seven questions in the box below. If you are between the ages of 15 and 69, this questionnaire (the PARQ) will tell you if you should check with your Doctor before you start. If you are over 69 years of age and you are not used to being active, check with your Doctor. Please read the questions carefully and answer each one honestly. Check the box indicating yes or no. Common sense is your best guide when you answer these questions.

Has your Doctor ever said that you have a heart condition and that you should only do physical activity recommended by a Doctor?
Do you feel pain in your chest when you do physical activity?
In the past month, have you had pain in your chest while NOT doing physical activity?
Do you lose your balance due to dizziness or do you ever lose consciousness?
Do you have a bone or joint problem that could be made worse by a change in your physical activity?
Is your Doctor presently prescribing drugs (for example, water pills) for your blood pressure or heart condition?
Do you know any other reason that you should not do physical activity?

Cleared for Exercise

I certify that I am in good physical health and I am able to undertake and engage in the range of physical activities in which I choose to participate at the gym. I assume all responsibility for updating the facility with respect to any changes in my physical or mental condition and for reporting all injuries sustained at the facility to the gym staff. I understand and am aware that strength, flexibility, aerobic and anaerobic exercise, including the use of any equipment, is a potentially hazardous activity. I also understand that fitness activities involve a risk of injury and even death and that I am voluntarily participating in these activities and using equipment with knowledge of all the dangers involved. I do hereby agree to expressly assume and accept any and all risks of injury or death either accidental or otherwise. This waiver, release and indemnification agreement includes, without limitation, all injuries which may occur as a result of (a) my use of all amenities and equipment in the facility and my participation in any class, activity or personal training, (b) sudden unforeseen malfunctioning of any equipment and (c) my slipping or falling while in the facility, on the facility premises, including adjacent sidewalks and parking areas. I acknowledge that I have carefully read this waiver, release and indemnification agreement and fully understand that it is a full and complete release of all liability.
