Release and Liability Waiver

​

I (hereinafter referred to as the ‘Participant’) am aware that participation in a sport or physical exercise may result in accident or injury. Participant assumes the risk connected with the participation in a sport or exercise and confirms that Participant is in good health and suffers from no physical impairment which would limit their use of Fit Ground facilities.

Participant acknowledges that Fit Ground has not and will not render any medical services including medical diagnosis of Participant’s physical conditions. Participant specifically agrees that Fit Ground, its officers, employers, and agents shall not be liable for any claim, demand, cause of action of any kind whatsoever for, or on account of death, personal injury, property damage or loss of any kind resulting from or related to Participant’s use of the facilities or participation in any exercise or activity within or outside the gym premises. Participant agrees not to hold Fit Ground nor their employees and/or agents liable for any such injury, death, loss or damage of property.

I HAVE READ THE ABOVE RELEASE AND WAIVER OF LIABILITY AND FULLY UNDERSTAND ITS CONTENT. I VOLUNTARILY AGREE THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS STATED ABOVE.
