Client-Trainer Agreement

Following is the text of the Agreement that we will both sign, prior to commencing your programme of exercise.

Agreement

The following constitutes the entire Agreement between the Client and the Trainer.

The Trainer agrees to use their skills and knowledge to design a programme of exercise that will take into account the Client’s personal goals, fitness level and exercise preferences. 

The Trainer will provide coaching, supervision advice and support that the Client may require to help them achieve their goals. The Client’s progress will be regularly monitored and the programme revised and adjusted accordingly. 

The Trainer will provide all necessary equipment and will organise appropriate venues for all the training sessions. 

It is understood between Client and Trainer that both will commit to the programme and give 100% effort. 

It is the Client’s responsibility to wear appropriate clothing and footwear. Clothes should be loose fitting and non-restrictive. Footwear should be comfortable and provide adequate support. 

The Client is responsible for bringing an appropriate water bottle, filled ready for the session, and any sustenance required by the Client for pre or post session nutrition. 

All Client information will be kept strictly private and confidential.  If the Trainer requires further medical information from a practitioner, the Client must provide such details prior to the programme of exercise commencing or continuing.

Medical Screening

The Client must complete a Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire (PAR-Q) before commencing any programme of exercise with the Trainer and thereafter every 12 months.

Where the Client has answered ‘Yes’ to any PAR-Q questions, the Trainer may require written medical clearance from the Client’s doctor prior to agreeing a programme of exercise.  Your medical centre may charge for this service. 

The Client must inform the Trainer of any new medical conditions arising between sessions that may not have been covered earlier in the PAR-Q.  The Trainer may require that the Client be seen by a doctor prior to recommencing training sessions.

Cancellations

It is the responsibility of the Client to ensure that the dates and times booked are correct. To cancel a booked session, the Client must notify the Trainer either in person or by phone, text or email.  Notice of between 24 and 48 hours will require a 50% payment of the session fee. Notice of less than 24 hours notice will incur full payment of the session fee. 

In the event of cancellation by the Trainer, the Trainer is responsible for notifying the Client of any such cancellation and there is no charge or loss of session.
