Personal Training Contract/Agreement
Congratulations on your decision to participate in an exercise program! With the help of your personal trainer,
you greatly improve your ability to accomplish your training goals faster, safer, and with maximum benefits. The
details of these training sessions can be used for a lifetime.
In order to maximize progress, it will be necessary for you to follow program guidelines during supervised
and (if applicable) unsupervised training days. Remember, exercise and healthy eating are EQUALLY important!
During your exercise program, every effort will be made to assure your safety. However, as with any exercise program, there are risks, including increased heart stress and the chance of musculoskeletal injuries. In
volunteering for this program, you agree to assume responsibility for these risks and waive any possibility for
personal damage. You also agree that, to your knowledge, you have no limiting physical conditions or disability
that would preclude an exercise program.
By signing below, you accept full responsibility for your own health and well-being AND you acknowledge an
understanding that no responsibility is assumed by the leaders of the program.
It is recommended that all program participants work with their personal trainer three (3) times per week.
However, due to scheduling conflicts and financial considerations, a combination of supervised and unsupervised
workouts is possible.

Personal Training Terms and Conditions
1. Personal training sessions that are not rescheduled or canceled 24 hours in advance will result in forfeiture
of the session and a loss of the financial investment at the rate of one session.
2. Clients arriving late will receive the remaining scheduled session time, unless other arrangements have

3. The expiration policy requires completion of all personal training sessions within 120 days from the date

4. No personal training refunds will be issued for any reason, including but not limited to relocation, illness,
