Take responsibility. Do not take risks or do activities that may not be appropriate for you.
Ask questions. If you have any questions about your health and how it might be affected by exercise or other activities in the facilities/programs, CONTACT YOUR DOCTOR and obtain his/her permission before doing them. A complete physical is recommended.
