FAQ

Frequently asked

How is this different from the gym liability waiver template?

The gym liability waiver focuses on the core legal release. The gym & fitness waiver adds explicit clauses for personal training, group classes, and communicable disease risk — the items most often missing from boilerplate waivers when claims arise.

Do I need a separate waiver for personal training?

Many gyms include personal training as an addendum on the same waiver so the member only signs once. This template includes the addendum field so you can capture both intake and PT consent in one signing session.

Does this cover online or hybrid fitness coaching?

The template is written for in-facility activity. If you also run remote/online coaching, customize the assumption-of-risk section to explicitly cover unsupervised exercise at the client's location.
