I wish to participate in the exercise and training program offered by SC FIT South /SC Health & Wellness LTD (“SC FIT”) I understand there are inherent risks in participating in a program of strenuous exercise; consequently, I have been examined by a physician of my choice and have obtained his/her approval for my participation in a fitness program within sixty (60) days of the date set forth below. No change has occurred in my physical condition since the date such approval was given which might affect my ability to participate in the fitness program. If a physician has not examined me, I agree to see a physician within sixty (60) days of the date set forth below to obtain his/her approval for my participation in a fitness program. If I choose not to see a physician prior to beginning a fitness program, I do so strictly at my own risk and against recommendation of SC FIT.
I further agree that SC FIT, shall not be liable or responsible for any injuries to me resulting from my participation in the fitness program (whether at home, at the training facility, outdoors, or at a corporate, commercial, residential or other fitness facility), and I expressly release and discharge SC FIT, its owners, employees, agents, licensors, contractors, affiliates, subsidiaries and/or assigns from all claims, actions, judgments and the like which I or my heirs, executors, administrators, or assigns may have or claim to have as a result of any injury or other damage which may occur in connection with my participation in the fitness program, excepting only an injury caused by an intentional act of such person or persons.
