I, the undersigned member, understand and agree to the following terms regarding the use of the gym during unstaffed hours:
Eligibility for Unstaffed Access
I understand that self-access is available exclusively to Barbell members.
Other members may only train when staff are present, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the gym owner.
Unstaffed Hours and Circumstances
I acknowledge that unstaffed use may occur:
During specific Barbell membership self-access hours;
Occasionally during open gym if a coach steps away briefly;
Or in the event of unforeseen circumstances where staff are temporarily unavailable.
I accept that at these times, no coach or staff member may be on-site, and I am responsible for my own safety and conduct.
Voluntary Participation
I choose to access and use the gym during unstaffed hours voluntarily and at my own risk.
Assumption of Risk
I understand that training without staff supervision involves potential risks, including injury or, in rare cases, death. I accept full responsibility for my safety and for assessing whether I am physically and mentally fit to exercise alone.
No Supervision or Assistance
I acknowledge that there will be no coach or staff present during unstaffed hours. I agree that I am competent and capable of training safely and responsibly without supervision.
Equipment Use
I will use all gym equipment properly, as instructed during staffed sessions or inductions. I will immediately report any faulty or damaged equipment to the gym owner.
Safety and Conduct
I will not allow entry to any non-members.
I will train in a safe and respectful manner.
I will not perform dangerous lifts or exercises that require spotting unless I have appropriate safety measures in place (e.g. safety bars).
I will ensure emergency exits remain clear and accessible.
Emergency Procedures
I have been shown the location of emergency exits, first aid kits, and contact procedures in case of an emergency.
In the event of an accident or injury, I will immediately contact emergency services and inform the gym owner.
Waiver of Liability
I agree that Arc House / it's owner and staff are not responsible for any injury, loss, or damage that may occur while using the facility during unstaffed hours.
I release and discharge Arc House / it's owner and staff, from all claims arising from my participation in unstaffed use.
CCTV and Security
I understand that CCTV may be in operation for security and safety purposes. My entry and activity may be recorded.
