About this disclaimer
This Health Disclaimer applies to all services offered by Nspired Greenville, including the Next Season Wellness program, personal training, health coaching, virtual sessions, in-gym sessions, outdoor bike rides and hikes, and any information shared on our website, in messages, or in handouts.

Not medical advice
Our services and materials are for general fitness, wellness, and education purposes only. They are not medical advice and are not a substitute for diagnosis, treatment, or care from a physician or other licensed health care provider. Never ignore professional medical advice or delay seeking it because of something you learned from us.
Talk with your physician first
Please consult your physician before starting any new exercise, nutrition, or weight loss program, and before changing the intensity of your activity. This is especially important if you have heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, joint problems, a recent injury or surgery, are pregnant or recently gave birth, take medication, or have any other health condition. We may ask for written medical clearance before you begin or continue training.
What a health coach and personal trainer does (and does not do)
Chris Jamison Sr. is a Certified Personal Trainer through ISSA and a Certified Health Coach. In that role we design exercise programs, coach healthy habits, and support you in reaching your goals. We do not:
- diagnose, treat, or cure any disease or medical condition;
- prescribe or adjust medication;
- provide medical nutrition therapy or meal plans to treat a medical condition (nutrition guidance is general and educational);
- provide physical therapy, mental health counseling, or other licensed clinical services.
When something is outside our scope, we will encourage you to see the right licensed professional.
Health risk information
We may share general information about health risks that are more common in certain age groups, genders, or racial and ethnic backgrounds. This information is educational and based on general population trends. It does not mean you have, or will develop, any condition. Only your physician can assess your personal medical risk.
No guarantee of results
Results vary from person to person. Your progress depends on many factors, including your health history, genetics, age, sleep, stress, nutrition, consistency, and how closely you follow your plan. We do not guarantee any specific weight loss, fitness level, change in health markers, or other outcome. Any examples or testimonials reflect individual experiences and are not typical or promised results.
Exercise involves risk
All physical activity carries some risk of injury, illness, or, in rare cases, serious medical events. Risks depend on the setting:
- Virtual sessions (Zoom, or FaceTime as an alternative): the coach is not physically present to spot you or correct your form, and your home space, flooring, furniture, pets, and equipment are under your control.
- In-gym sessions: free weights, machines, and other gym equipment can cause strains, sprains, falls, or crush injuries if used improperly or if equipment fails.
- Outdoor bike rides and hikes: weather (heat, humidity, cold, storms, lightning), uneven terrain, roots, rocks, mud, water crossings, traffic, other cyclists and trail users, insects, wildlife, falls, and distance from emergency help.
Listen to your body
Stop exercising right away and tell your coach if you feel chest pain or pressure, severe shortness of breath, dizziness or lightheadedness, fainting, an irregular heartbeat, nausea, sudden severe pain, or any symptom that concerns you. If you think you are having a medical emergency, call 911.
Your responsibility
By using our website or services, you agree that you are responsible for your own health decisions, that you will share accurate health information with us, and that you participate voluntarily and at your own risk. All clients must complete our Health History Questionnaire and Liability Release and Waiver before their first session.
