This Disclaimer applies to all coaching, programs, content and resources provided by Apex Fitness Advisory Pty Ltd (ABN 68 694 157 581) ("Apex", "we", "us"), including our websites, social media, emails, guides, videos, group calls, the Apex App and the Apex Inner Circle community.
By using our content or services, you acknowledge and accept this Disclaimer. It forms part of our Terms & Conditions.
1.Coaching, not medical care
Apex provides health, fitness and nutrition coaching. Apex coaches are not doctors, medical professionals or dietitians. We do not diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease or medical condition, and nothing we provide is medical advice or a substitute for advice, diagnosis or treatment from a qualified health professional.
Our nutrition guidance is general and performance-focused. It is not medical nutrition therapy and is not intended to manage a medical condition.
2.Consult your doctor first
Always consult your doctor before starting any training or nutrition program, and before making changes to your training, nutrition, supplements or lifestyle. This is especially important if you:
- have, or have had, a heart condition, high blood pressure, diabetes or any other medical condition;
- take any prescribed medication;
- are pregnant, planning a pregnancy or breastfeeding;
- have an injury, recent surgery or chronic pain; or
- are aged 50 or over and have not had a recent medical review.
If your doctor's advice differs from ours, follow your doctor.
3.Health data and test results
Where we review blood tests, DEXA or InBody scans, wearable data or other health metrics, we do so for coaching purposes only, to help guide your training and nutrition. We do not interpret results for medical purposes. Always review your results with your doctor, and act on their advice about anything outside a normal range.
4.Medication and supplements
Never start, stop or change any prescribed medication or medical treatment based on Apex coaching or content. Any mention of supplements is general information only. Check with your doctor or pharmacist before taking any supplement, particularly if you take medication or have a medical condition.
5.Training risk and personal responsibility
Physical training and changes to nutrition carry inherent risks, including injury, aggravation of existing conditions and, rarely, serious harm or death. By following any Apex program or content, you participate voluntarily and accept these risks to the extent permitted by law.
You are responsible for training within your limits, using correct technique and safe equipment, and checking foods against your own allergies and intolerances. Stop immediately and seek medical help if you experience chest pain, unusual breathlessness, dizziness, fainting, irregular heartbeat or sharp pain.
6.Emergencies
Apex messaging, email, SMS and community channels are not monitored for emergencies. In a medical emergency, call your local emergency number immediately: 000 in Australia, 911 in the US, 999 in the UK.
7.General information only
Our free content, including posts, videos, emails, guides, newsletters and group call recordings, is general information and education. It does not take your individual health, circumstances or goals into account, and it does not create a coach-client relationship. Personalised coaching is provided only to clients under a signed Program Agreement.
We take care to keep our content accurate and current, but health and fitness research changes over time. We make no warranty that all content is complete, accurate or up to date.
8.Results and testimonials
Results vary from person to person. They depend on your starting point, health, genetics, lifestyle, consistency and effort, as well as factors outside our control. We do not promise any specific outcome.
Testimonials, case studies, scan results and before-and-after photos are real client experiences, shared with each client's written consent. They are individual results, not typical or promised results. Where a client has received anything of value in connection with sharing their story, we will disclose it.
9.Third parties and external links
We may refer you to independent providers such as DEXA facilities, laboratories or doctors, or link to third-party websites and products. These are independent of Apex. We are not responsible for their services, advice, products, fees, results or content.
10.Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Apex is not liable for any loss, injury or damage arising from your use of our content or services, including loss caused by inaccurate or incomplete health disclosure, failure to follow your program or medical advice, or training outside our instructions. Nothing in this Disclaimer excludes any right or remedy you have under the Australian Consumer Law or other consumer protection laws that cannot lawfully be excluded.
