PCS Customised Training Plan Terms & Conditions

By undertaking this customised training plan you agree to the following terms:

Introduction

  • These are the Terms of Business which govern our sales of fitness and nutrition plans (Plans) or community support service (Service).
  • They should be read in conjunction with our website terms of use and our privacy policy, both of which can be found on our website.
  • This constitutes a legal agreement between us and you. Please read it carefully.
  • Please note that we do not provide medical advice. When following our plans, guides, programs and advice you are doing so at your own risk, and you must take full responsibility for the effects on your body that you may experience along the way. Any guidance we may provide is no substitute for professional medical or physiotherapy advice. Always ask your GP if in doubt.

Information about how to contact us

Who we are. We are Progressive Coaching Systems Pty Ltd, registered in Australia.

How to contact us. You can contact us by email to  info@pcscoaching.com.au or by post to P.O. Box 2540, WELLINGTON POINT, QLD 4160.

How we may contact you. If we have to contact you we will do so by telephone or by writing to you at the email address or postal address you provided to us in your order.

“Writing” includes emails. When we use the words “writing” or “written” in these terms, this includes emails.

The Plans, Guides and Programs

Nature of the Plans, Guides and Programs. All the meals contained within all Plans are suggested and no set plans will be given, unless you have specifically paid for this service and therefore new recipes will not be created upon request.

Our ethos. The program has been created in line with our own unique formula. Our ethos is sustainability and enjoyment of food, which is tracked and calculated using your own unique macros and calories, to create a specific outcome, determined by you. Therefore, we do not pre-determine nutritional values for you.  This is your responsibility, unless you have expressly paid for this service.

Allergies.  Please note, that you are responsible for all your own food and health choices pertaining to this.

Physical training. The training routines contained within the Plans, Guides and Programs are also pre-set. However you can modify to accommodate injury or illness as you wish.  You will receive details on the exact structure to follow; meaning the duration, repetition, range and amount of sets. Due to strength being such an individual consideration, weight on the resistance training section will never be specified and this is something you will have to discover through carrying out the exercises.

1. Waiver and Release of Liability, Assumption of Risk and Indemnity

    • In consideration of Progressive Coaching Systems Pty. Ltd. (“PCS”) accepting my participation in any training program, coaching packages or event, or skills training (Recreational Activities) conducted by PCS which may involve a significant risk of physical harm, I agree to this release of claims, waiver of liability and assumption of risk. I am aware that weight lifting, mountain biking and cycling in general is a recreational activity which may involve, in addition to usual and inherent risks, personal injury, obvious risk, danger to myself, the possibility of injury and harm and physical exertion for which I may not be prepared, remoteness to normal medical service, weather extremes subject to sudden and unexpected change and evacuation difficulties if I am disabled.
    • I accept all of the inherent and obvious risks and that weight lifting, mountain biking and cycling in general is a dangerous recreational activity and the possibility of personal injury, death, property damage or loss resulting there from.
