The Gym 24/7 Waiver and Liability Release

As a 24-hour secure-access fitness facility, CFD66 LLC dba “The Gym” (hereafter referred to as
"the gym"), has a few different policies and procedures than a typical fitness facility. Please read
the information carefully. If you have any questions, please ask.
Compliance with Rules I understand and agree that a 24/7 gym membership 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:
• Members will be given an Access Card for a 24/7 membership (replacement card $10)
• Only one 24/7 member may enter the gym front door at a time during non-staffed hours
• 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
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. 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.

 

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.
There are no set staffed hours. 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.
A first aid station and AED are located in the facility. In addition, alert pendants will be
available that, when activated, will connect to 911.

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
loose 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.
Answer Yes/ No
1. Has your Doctor ever said that you have a heart condition and that you should only do
physical activity recommended by a Doctor?
2. Do you feel pain in your chest when you do physical activity?
3. In the past month, have you had pain in your chest while NOT doing physical activity?

4. Do you lose your balance due to dizziness or do you ever lose consciousness?
5. Do you have a bone or joint problem that could be made worse by a change in your physical
activity?
6. Is your Doctor presently prescribing drugs (for example, water pills) for your blood pressure
or heart condition?
7. Do you know any other reason that you should not do physical activity?
