Terms & Health Disclaimer

Agreement

These Terms of Use ("Terms") apply to the website underdogcoaching.us and to coaching services offered by Underdog Coaching LLC ("we", "us"). By using the website or booking a call, you agree to these Terms. If you become a client, you will also sign a separate Service Agreement and Waiver. If there is a conflict, the signed agreement wins.

Our services

We offer 1:1 online strength and fitness coaching: custom training programs, video guides, messaging support and video check-ins. Coaching is delivered online through third-party tools such as Trainerize and Zoom.

Health disclaimer

• Nothing on this website or in our coaching is medical advice, diagnosis or treatment.
• Always talk to your doctor before you start a new exercise program, especially after an injury, surgery, with a stoma, with a chronic condition, during pregnancy or if you take medication.
• We only start working with you after injuries once you are cleared for exercise by your doctor or physical therapist.
• Stop training immediately and get medical help if you feel chest pain, dizziness, shortness of breath, sharp pain or any other warning sign.
• If you have a medical emergency, call 911.

Assumption of risk

Exercise and strength training carry risks, including muscle soreness, strains, injuries and, in rare cases, serious harm. You take part voluntarily and you understand and accept these risks. You are responsible for using safe equipment and a safe training space, and for following the instructions in your program.

No guaranteed results

Every body is different. Results depend on many things, including your health, effort, sleep, nutrition and consistency. The charts on this website are illustrations of what progress can look like. They are not a promise of specific results or timelines.

Free consultation and booking

The first consultation is free and has no obligation. It is a 45-minute video call to talk about your goals and to see if coaching is a good fit. Calls are booked through Calendly. Please cancel or reschedule through the link in your confirmation email if you cannot make it.

Plans, billing and cancellation

There is no payment on this website. If you decide to start coaching after your consultation, we set up your plan together.

Automatic monthly renewal

Coaching plans are continuous monthly services. Your plan renews automatically every month and you are charged the monthly price until you cancel. Before we charge you for the first time, we will explain these terms, ask for your clear consent and send you a written confirmation by email that you can keep. The confirmation will include the price, the billing date and how to cancel.

How to cancel

• You can cancel at any time by email to hello@underdogcoaching.us or by message in the coaching app.
• Cancellation takes effect 30 days after we receive your notice. You keep full access to coaching during these 30 days.
• We will confirm your cancellation in writing.
• If we ever change the price of your plan, we will tell you in advance and you can cancel before the new price applies.

[Archer: before your first client, have these billing terms and the 30-day notice period checked against the California Automatic Renewal Law.]

Your responsibilities

• Give true and complete information, especially in the health questionnaire (PAR-Q), and tell us about any change in your health.
• Follow your doctor's and physical therapist's advice.
• Train within your limits and use correct technique as shown in the video guides.
• Keep your login details for the coaching app private.
