As the instructor of this virtual weightlifting class conducted via Zoom, I prioritize your safety and well-being. Throughout the sessions, I will provide guidance on proper lifting techniques and offer warnings to help you exercise safely. It is important to note that while I will offer guidance on form and technique, ultimately, the responsibility for using equipment safely rests with each participant. Please ensure that you select appropriate weights, maintain proper form, and pay attention to your body's signals during the exercises. 


I hereby acknowledge that I have voluntarily chosen to participate in the virtual weightlifting class, conducted by Harman Ransi via Zoom. I understand that participation in any physical activity carries with it certain inherent risks and that I am solely responsible for my own safety during the course of this class.

4. I understand that I should only perform exercises and lift weights that are appropriate for my current level of fitness and physical condition. 
5. I acknowledge that the instructor cannot see my physical environment and therefore cannot provide direct supervision or correction of my form or technique. 
6. I agree to stop any exercise or activity immediately if I feel any pain, discomfort, or dizziness, and to seek medical attention if necessary. 
7. I understand that the instructor is not a medical professional and cannot provide medical advice or diagnosis. 
8. I hereby release, waive, discharge, and covenant not to sue the instructor, or any other participants in the virtual weightlifting class for any liability, claims, demands, actions, and causes of action whatsoever arising out of or related to any loss, damage, or injury, including death, that may be sustained by me, or to any property belonging to me, whether caused by the negligence of the instructor or otherwise.
