In consideration of your acceptance of this entry, I hereby waive, for myself, my heirs, and assigns, any and all claims for injury or damages which I may incur by virtue of competing in this meet as David Oyler, Joshua May; Leaning Tower YMCA; YMCA Chicago; NASA, their agents and employee's. I also swear that I am anabolic steroid free for the time period I so indicated by the division I have carefully chose to enter. I also agree to present myself in a timely fashion for any and all Drug Testing that I might be asked to submit. Failure to submit to drug testing will be grounds for ban of a period of three years which is the same period for a positive steroid test. Testosterone levels over 6/1 ratio will disqualify me from NASA and this meet. If found positive for drug test NASA has the right to publish your name under the suspended lifter list. I also certify that I am in good physical health and I am not knowingly competing in this competition against any Dr.'s orders or recommendations. I also realize that powerlifting, Bench Pressing and Power Sports are High Risk Sports and I could very well be injured. I release the promoter and above mentioned individuals and owners of any liability for injury or loss if any such injury occurs. I also realize that I use the reverse or open (thumb not locked around bar) Grip for the Bench Press, I am greatly increasing my chances of personal injury. I fully accept the risk that I may take for my own actions in performing my lifts in this meet and the warm-up area. I also realize that spotter/loaders are not provided in the warm-up area and I shall provide my own, for my own safety. I hereby release David Oyler, Cheryl Targos; Leaning Tower YMCA; YMCA Chicago; NASA, the Owner of the meet location, and any and all agents and employees of such from any and all claims for injury and loss that I might incur by my participation in this even, in the warm-up area and my travel to and from the meet.
