Personal Training Agreement
A personal training agreement is a contract for one-on-one fitness coaching sessions with health disclaimers and session scheduling terms. Use this when a gym or independent trainer sells session packages. It requires PAR-Q health acknowledgment and states training is not medical advice.
What's included
A ready-to-use personal training agreement covering trainer credentials and session location, health questionnaire and doctor clearance triggers, session pack size and expiration, with signature fields already placed for Trainer and Client. Fill in the bracketed details (like [Company Name] or [Date]) using Docracy's built-in text editor, then send it out for signature.
