I have voluntarily requested and agreed to participate in The Fitness Principal Program. In consideration for being permitted to participate, I hereby agree and represent that:

  1. I understand that The Fitness Principal, East Jefferson General Hospital, The Wellness Center, and Cecil “Mackie” Shilstone (hereinafter referred to collectively as “The Fitness Principal Program” and includes by reference the employees or agents of each) will take reasonable efforts to assure my safety while participating in the training and exercise Program. I understand however that there are unavoidable risks of physical injury or resulting damage such as heart attack and stroke associated with any exercise and training program, as well as the activities incident thereto, (hereinafter reference to as the "Program" or "participation in the Program"). I understand that these risks of injury and/or damage may also be caused by third parties or circumstances or events over which neither The Fitness Principle nor anyone for whom The Fitness Principle may be responsible or related, has control or could reasonably foresee.

  2. I represent and warrant that I do not know of any medical condition, symptom or any other reason that would prevent me from undertaking the exercise and training Program or increase my risk beyond those inherent in the exercise and training Program. I understand that the training and exercise program will be strenuous and involve a variety of exercise and training activities at various locations.

  3. I understand that The Fitness Principle does not guarantee my safety or that I will remain free from injury and/or damage during participation in the Program.

  4. I acknowledge and agree that my participation in the Program is completely voluntary and made with full knowledge of the inherent risks of injury and/or damage that may occur during participation in the Program.

I understand that, although The Fitness Principle has made reasonable efforts to assure my safety while participating in the Program, that there are unavoidable risks in participation in the Program, and I hereby release and promise not to sue The Fitness Principle or any of their employees or agents for any damages or injury (including death) caused by, arising out of, or related to my participation in the Program, except for such damages or injury as may be caused by the negligence or fault of The Fitness Principle or its employees or agents.

  6. I represent that at all times during my participation in the Program I will be covered by health insurance to provide adequate coverage for any injuries, illnesses or damages that I may sustain or experience. By my signature below I certify that I have confirmed that my health insurance will adequately cover any injuries, illnesses or damages that I may sustain or experience. I hereby release The Fitness Principle, its employees and agents from any responsibility or liability for expenses incurred by me for injuries or illnesses (including death) that I may incur because of those injuries or illnesses.

  7. I agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless (including attorney's fees and costs) The Fitness Principle from and against any and all losses, claims, demands, liabilities or causes of action of every kind and character for personal injury to or illness of or death of any employee or invitee of The Fitness Principle which injury, illness or death arises out of or is in connection with or is in any way incidental to my acts, fault, omission, negligence or breach of any obligation pursuant to the Program; except I shall not be required to defend, indemnify and hold harmless The Fitness Principle to the extent such injury, illness or death is caused by negligence of The Fitness Principle.

  8. I understand that although The Fitness Principle will attempt to maintain the Program as described to me, it reserves the right to change the Program, including the itinerary, travel arrangements, or accommodations at any time and for any reason, with or without notice, and that The Fitness Principle shall not be responsible or liable for any expenses or losses that I may sustain because of these changes.

  9. I understand that The Fitness Principle reserves the right to decline to accept or continue to retain me in the Program at any time should my actions or general behavior, in the sole discretion of The Fitness Principle be determined to impede, obstruct, or present a risk of harm to me or others affiliated with the Program in any way.

  10. I agree that, should any provision or aspect of this Agreement be found to be unenforceable, that all the remaining provisions of the Agreement will remain in full force and effect.

  11. I represent that my agreement to the provisions herein is wholly voluntary, that the provisions herein are understood by me and are reasonable. I further understand that, prior to signing this Agreement, I have the right to consult with any advisor, counselor, or attorney of my choice.

  12. I agree that, should there be any dispute concerning my participation in the Program that will require the adjudication of a court of law, such adjudication will occur in the courts of and be determined by the laws of the State of Louisiana and venue shall only be proper in the Parish of Jefferson, State of Louisiana.

  13. This Agreement represents my complete understanding with The Fitness Principle concerning its responsibility and liability for my participation in the Program and that it supercedes any previous or contemporaneous understandings I may have had on this subject, whether written or oral, and that this agreement cannot be changed or amended in any way without written concurrence. The language and all parts of this Agreement shall be construed in all cases according to its fair meaning, and no for or against either party to this Agreement.
