Adolescent Barbell Coaching – PAR-Q, Safety & Consent Form

Adolescent Barbell Coaching – PAR-

To be completed by parent/guardian for ages 12–15; self-completed or co-signed for ages 16–17

Additional Coaching, Learning & Safety Information 

Students will be learning new movement patterns, often for the first time. They may use muscles and patterns unfamiliar to them, sometimes under load, within a short coaching window. Public gyms can also be loud or distracting. For safety and correct learning: – The coach may need to stand in close proximity. – Physical cueing may be required to correct technique or ensure proper muscle activation. – This prevents unsafe mimicry and reduces injury risk. 

  • Most hands-on guidance occurs only in the first few sessions. 
  • After foundational patterns are learned, students typically require minimal assistance.
