PUREPOWER CYCLE WAIVER, RELEASE, AND ASSUMPTION OF RISK
AGE REQUIREMENT:
You must be at least 18 years of age to sign this waiver. If you are under 18, your parent or legal guardian must sign a Parental/Legal Guardian Assumption of Risk, Waiver, and Release for Minor Participant, which is available at the studio. The parent/legal guardian must be present in person to sign the waiver, and it will be kept on file at the studio. Participants under 18 will not be permitted to participate in any classes until this waiver is signed.
ASSUMPTION OF RISK, WAIVER, AND RELEASE
By signing up for and/or attending classes, events, activities, and other programs, and by using the premises, facilities, equipment, or any other location where Purepower Cycle and its affiliates provide services (individually and collectively referred to as the “Classes and Facilities”), I acknowledge, on behalf of myself, my heirs, personal representatives, and assigns, that participation in indoor cycling and use of exercise equipment inherently involves risks, which include but are not limited to:
- Minor injuries such as cuts, bruises, or sprains;
- Major injuries such as eye injury, joint/back injuries, heart attacks, or concussions;
- Catastrophic injuries including paralysis or death;
- Overuse injuries (e.g., tendonitis, stress fractures);
- Equipment malfunctions or failure;
- Slips and falls, especially in wet or slippery environments;
- Injuries due to improper form or technique;
- Environmental conditions such as heat or inadequate ventilation.
I acknowledge that some of these risks cannot be eliminated regardless of the care taken to avoid injuries. I also understand that the specific risks vary from one activity to another.
I have read and thoroughly understand the Purepower Cycle’s Safety Instructions that are posted on Purepower’s website (www.purepowercycle.com), and a hard copy of these instructions was also provided to me by Purepower staff.
At all times, I shall comply with all stated and customary terms, posted safety signs, rules, and verbal instructions given to me by staff. If in the subjective opinion of the Purepower staff, I would be at physical risk participating in Purepower’s Classes, I understand and agree that I may be denied access to the classes and Facilities until I furnish Purepower with an opinion letter from my medical doctor, at my sole cost and expense, specifically addressing Purepower’s concerns and stating that Purepower’s concerns are unfounded.
In consideration of being allowed to participate in and access the Classes and Facilities, I hereby:
- Agree to assume full responsibility for any and all injuries or damage which are sustained or aggravated by me in relation to the Classes and Facilities;
- Release, indemnify, and hold harmless Purepower, its direct and indirect parent, subsidiary, affiliate entities, and each of their respective officers, directors, members, employees, representatives, and agents, and each of their respective successors and assigns, from any and all responsibility, claims, actions, suits, procedures, costs, expenses, damages, and liabilities to the fullest extent allowed by law arising out of or in any way related to participation in the Classes or use of the Facilities;
- Represent that I:
- (a) Have no medical or physical condition that would prevent me from properly using the Classes and Facilities;
- (b) Do not have any condition that would put me at increased physical or medical risk; and
- (c) Have not been advised by a physician to refrain from physical exercise. If I have any chronic conditions or disabilities, I acknowledge that I am fully aware of the risks involved and accept full responsibility for any injury or harm.
I acknowledge that if I have any chronic disabilities or conditions, I am at risk in using Purepower’s Classes and Facilities and should not be participating in any Classes.
I have read this Assumption of Risk, Waiver, and Release Agreement, fully understand its terms, and understand that I am giving up substantial rights, including my right to sue Purepower under certain circumstances.
I acknowledge that I am signing this waiver freely and voluntarily, and the term of this waiver is indefinite.
ADDITIONAL DISCLAIMER REGARDING COVID-19 AND OTHER HEALTH RISKS (if applicable)
Health Risks: I understand that by participating in any class, I may be exposed to contagious illnesses, such as COVID-19, and that indoor cycling and physical fitness activities carry inherent risks. I voluntarily assume all risks related to potential exposure to illness or injury while using the Purepower facilities. I agree to follow all safety measures recommended by Purepower, including but not limited to wearing masks or practicing social distancing, when applicable.
VALUABLES AND PERSONAL PROPERTY
I acknowledge that I have been advised not to bring valuables into the Facilities. Purepower Cycle shall not be liable for the loss, theft, or damage of my personal property, including items left in lockers, bathrooms, studios, or any other area within the Facilities. I accept full responsibility for my belongings.
Community Guidelines
To ensure a respectful and safe environment at Purepower Cycle, I agree to follow the community guidelines, which are displayed on the studio walls and available on the official website (www.purepowercycle.com).
Purepower Cycle reserves the right to deny access to anyone whose behavior is deemed inappropriate or poses a risk to the safety and well-being of others.
BIKE SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
- Ensure that adjustment knobs (seat height, seat fore-and-aft, and handlebar) are properly secured and do not interfere with the range of motion during exercise.
- Children under 4’11” should not ride the Purepower bike. The bike mechanism and ergonomics are designed for riders above 4’11”.
- Do not insert any object, hands, or feet into any openings, or expose hands, arms, or feet to the drive mechanism or other potentially moving parts of the bike.
- The maximum weight for individuals riding the Purepower bike should not exceed 350 pounds (159 kilograms).
- The Purepower bike has a weighted flywheel and a fixed gear. This means that in order to stop, you must gradually slow your pedal strokes rather than stopping abruptly. If you do need to stop immediately, push down on the resistance red knob. Do not dismount the bike or remove your feet from the pedals until both the pedals and the flywheel have stopped completely. Failure to comply may lead to loss of control and serious injury.
- After exercising, turn the resistance knob to increase resistance so that the pedals will not rotate freely and potentially injure someone.
- If at any time you feel dizzy or have difficulty breathing, gradually stop pedaling and carefully dismount the bike.
- Listen to your body, ride at your own pace, and set your bike’s resistance at the level that feels right for you.
- Keep children and pets away from the bike whenever it’s in use.
- Never turn the pedal crank arms by hand.
- Stay hydrated. Drink water throughout your ride as needed.
- Always keep some resistance on the flywheel.
- Stay in control by executing all core movements and hand positions at a slow pace before attempting to increase your speed. Do not attempt to ride the Purepower bike in a standing position at a high RPM until you have practiced at slower speeds.
- Focus on form, posture, and making smooth transitions between movements.
- Do not use the bicycle without proper footwear. Never operate the bike with bare feet. The pedals are compatible with Look Delta and SPD clips.
- Never remove your feet from the pedals while still in motion. If your foot does become disengaged, quickly move your feet to the side and push down on the resistance knob to stop the flywheel’s motion.
- Keep at least 10” on either side of the bicycle clear.
