Informed Consent, Assumption of Risk and Liability Waiver

1. Voluntary participation

I voluntarily choose to participate in live virtual personal training provided by Javier Preciado, operating as 30-MINUTE WORKOUT. I understand that I may decline any exercise, ask questions, pause or stop a session at any time.

I confirm that I am at least 18 years old and have had enough opportunity to read and consider this document before accepting it.

2. Exercise and virtual-training risks

I understand that physical exercise involves foreseeable and unforeseeable risks. These may include:

• Muscle soreness, fatigue, sprains, strains, joint injury and other musculoskeletal injury.
• Slips, trips, falls, collisions, dropped equipment or equipment failure.
• Dizziness, fainting, dehydration, abnormal blood pressure or heart-rate responses.
• Chest discomfort, breathing difficulty, cardiac events, stroke, disability or death.
• Aggravation of an existing or previously unknown condition.

Virtual training also has limitations and risks. Javier is not physically present to inspect my room, equipment or surroundings, provide hands-on assistance, control my camera angle or internet connection, or respond in person during an emergency. Some movement details or warning signs may not be visible or audible through video.

I am responsible for selecting a clear, stable and well-lit exercise area, using suitable equipment in good condition, removing foreseeable hazards, positioning my camera appropriately and keeping a telephone available.

3. Health and readiness

I will give Javier honest and reasonably complete information about injuries, diagnoses, symptoms, medications, pregnancy, physical limitations and other matters that could affect exercise. I will report relevant changes before each session.

I understand that Javier is not providing medical diagnosis, treatment, physiotherapy, emergency care or individualized medical advice. I am responsible for seeking advice or clearance from an appropriate regulated healthcare professional when I have symptoms, a medical condition, an injury, am pregnant, have been advised to limit activity or am uncertain whether exercise is appropriate.

Javier may require medical guidance or clearance and may modify, pause, decline or end an activity when he reasonably believes that doing so is appropriate for safety.

I will not participate while impaired by alcohol, cannabis, recreational drugs or any medication or substance that makes exercise unsafe.

4. Concerning symptoms and emergencies

I will stop exercising immediately and tell Javier if I experience pain, dizziness, faintness, chest pressure or discomfort, unusual shortness of breath, loss of coordination, confusion, sudden weakness or any other concerning symptom.

If symptoms may be urgent, I will contact local emergency services. Virtual personal training is not an emergency service, and Javier cannot guarantee that he will detect or be able to respond to an emergency remotely.

5. Informed consent

I understand the nature and purpose of the planned exercise instruction, the material risks described in this document, the limitations of remote supervision and the option to refuse or stop. I voluntarily consent to participate subject to these terms.

I understand that results vary and that no particular fitness, weight, muscle, mobility, pain or health result has been guaranteed.

6. Assumption of inherent risks

I knowingly and voluntarily accept the risks inherent in exercise and remote participation, including the risks arising from my health, actions, environment, equipment, camera placement, technology and failure to follow instructions, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

7. Release and waiver

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, I release and waive claims against Javier Preciado, 30-MINUTE WORKOUT and their lawful representatives, successors and assigns for injury, loss, damage or expense arising from my participation, including claims arising from their ordinary negligence in instruction, supervision, exercise selection, modification, warning or delivery through remote technology.

This release does not apply to gross negligence, intentional misconduct, fraud or any liability, duty or consumer right that cannot lawfully be excluded or waived.

8. Emergency information and assistance

I agree to keep a telephone accessible and, if requested, provide my current physical location and an emergency contact at the start of a session. If Javier reasonably believes that urgent assistance is needed, I authorize him to contact my emergency contact or local emergency services and disclose information reasonably necessary to request assistance.

9. Recordings and media

Neither party may record, photograph, livestream or distribute a session without the other party’s prior written consent. Any testimonial, photograph or promotional-media consent must be requested separately and is not a condition of receiving training.

10. Duration

This waiver applies to my first and future 30-MINUTE WORKOUT sessions unless it is replaced or revoked in writing. I remain responsible for reporting changes in my health and readiness. Javier may require renewed acceptance when this document or the service changes.

11. Governing law and severability

This document is governed by the laws of Ontario and the applicable laws of Canada. Mandatory rights in my home jurisdiction remain unaffected where they legally apply.

If a provision is held unenforceable, it will be limited or removed only to the extent required, and the remaining provisions will continue where legally possible.

12. Acknowledgement and acceptance

By signing or electronically accepting, I confirm that:
