Informed Consent

Last updated: May 21, 2026 · Version: v1

In plain English

Explains what training involves, what it can and cannot do, its known risks, and how programs are individualized, so your consent to participate in training is genuinely informed.

1.What training involves

Coaching with Demitry Davidson is the design, instruction, and progression of physical training. Depending on your goals and starting point, a program may include:

Resistance training — loaded movement with bodyweight, free weights, or other implements;
Calisthenics — bodyweight strength and skill work, which can include high-tension holds and progressions toward advanced movements;
Mobility and corrective work — addressing range of motion and movement quality, within the scope of the NASM Corrective Exercise Specialist credential;
Movement patterning — building and refining the squat, hinge, push, pull, and carry patterns;
Conditioning — work that elevates heart rate and challenges the cardiovascular and metabolic systems.

Training is physically demanding by design. It will, at times, involve real exertion, fatigue, and challenge. That is the mechanism by which it works.

2.Expected benefits

Consistent, well-programmed training is associated with a range of benefits, which may include improved strength, muscular endurance, mobility, body composition, movement quality, bone density, cardiovascular health, energy, sleep, and resilience to injury.

These are reasonably expected benefits of the process. They are not promises — see Section 5.

3.Known risks

Exercise carries inherent risk that cannot be fully eliminated. You acknowledge that you understand the risks of training, which include, without limitation:

muscle soreness, fatigue, cramping, strains, sprains, and tendinopathies;
joint stress and the aggravation of pre-existing conditions;
falls, drops, equipment failure, and other accidents during movement;
elevated blood pressure and heart rate during exertion, and, in rare cases, cardiovascular events including heart attack and stroke — particularly where underlying conditions are present;
dizziness, lightheadedness, heat illness, dehydration, and loss of consciousness;
serious injury and, in rare cases, permanent disability or death.

Higher-intensity work, heavy loading, plyometric and explosive movement, and advanced calisthenics skills carry elevated risk relative to lower-intensity training. Where your program includes that work, it is introduced progressively and with instruction. The legal effect of these risks is addressed in the Liability Waiver & Release of Claims.

4.How programs are built

Your program is individualized. It is built from the information you provide — your goals, training history, injuries, medical conditions, medications, equipment access, schedule, and the readiness screening you complete at intake — and it is adjusted as your situation changes.

This means the program is only as accurate as the information behind it. If you withhold or misstate something relevant to safe participation, the program is built on incorrect inputs. You agree to disclose honestly and completely at intake and as things change: new injuries, new diagnoses, new medications, new restrictions, or new symptoms.

5.No guaranteed results

Results from training depend on many factors outside our control — your consistency, sleep, nutrition, stress, recovery, genetics, medical history, and life circumstances. We coach the process with professional care. We do not, and cannot, guarantee any specific outcome, timeline, weight, measurement, skill, or performance result. Any examples, testimonials, or typical progressions described to you are illustrations, not promises.

6.Your right to question, slow down, or stop

Informed consent is ongoing, not a one-time signature. Throughout training:

you may ask questions about any exercise, load, or progression at any time;
you may decline any exercise, load, or progression for any reason;
you may stop a session, pause the engagement, or end coaching;
you should stop immediately and tell us if you feel sharp, sudden, or unusual pain, chest pain or pressure, dizziness, faintness, or unusual shortness of breath.

You remain the person inside your body and the final decision-maker about what you do with it in any given moment. Choosing to stop is not a failure; it is one of your responsibilities.

By accepting this document, you confirm that you have read and understood what training involves, its expected benefits, its known risks, how your program is built, and that results are not guaranteed; that you have had a meaningful opportunity to ask questions; and that you voluntarily consent to participate in training on this basis.

You accept this document by checking the acknowledgment box that references this page during onboarding or any other intake we use, by signing it electronically or by hand, or by beginning to train with us after we have presented it to you for review. Electronic acceptance is legally binding under the U.S. E-SIGN Act, the New Mexico Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, and equivalent law.

This document supplements our Terms of Service, Readiness page, and Liability Waiver, and is governed by the laws of the State of New Mexico.
