Training & Medical Disclaimer

Not Medical Advice

Nothing in BigZ, including training programs, load recommendations, recovery scores, pain tracking features, injury substitution suggestions, AI coaching responses, or any other content, constitutes:

• Medical advice
• Medical diagnosis
• Medical treatment
• Physical therapy recommendations
• Rehabilitation programming

The health-adjacent inputs you log (fatigue, sleep, pain, injury status) are entered manually by you and used exclusively to adjust your training load within the app. They are not analyzed by medical professionals and are not transmitted to healthcare providers.

The in-app AI assistant explains the training engine's decisions in the voice of Zydrunas Savickas. Its responses are generated automatically, may be incomplete or incorrect, and do not replace a qualified strength coach or a healthcare professional. Always apply your own judgment.

Consult a Medical Professional Before Starting

Before beginning any strength training program, especially one involving heavy loads, competition preparation, or high-intensity training, you should:

• Consult a licensed physician or sports medicine professional
• Disclose any pre-existing medical conditions, injuries, or cardiovascular risk factors
• Obtain medical clearance if you are new to strength training, returning from injury, or have any health concerns

Assumption of Risk

Strength training, powerlifting, and strongman training are physically demanding activities that carry inherent risk of injury, including but not limited to:

• Musculoskeletal injuries (strains, tears, fractures)
• Cardiovascular stress
• Acute and overuse injuries
• Neurological stress under maximal loads

By using BigZ, you acknowledge and accept these risks. You are solely responsible for your training decisions, including whether to follow any recommendation generated by the app.

Stop Training Immediately If You Experience

• Sharp or acute pain during exercise
• Chest pain, tightness, or difficulty breathing
• Dizziness, lightheadedness, or fainting
• Numbness or loss of sensation in any extremity
• Any symptom that feels dangerous or unusual

Seek medical attention immediately if any of these occur. Do not attempt to "push through" symptoms that may indicate a serious medical event.

No Guarantee of Results

BigZ provides evidence-informed, expert-designed training programming. However, we make no guarantee that use of BigZ will:

• Improve athletic performance
• Prevent injury
• Achieve competitive goals
• Produce any specific physical outcome

Training outcomes depend on many factors including genetics, nutrition, sleep, consistency, and individual recovery capacity, factors outside the control of any software application.

Accuracy of Recommendations

Training recommendations are generated based on the data you enter. The accuracy of those recommendations depends entirely on the accuracy of the data you provide. Entering incorrect personal records, false readiness data, or inaccurate bodyweight will produce inappropriate load recommendations.

You are responsible for entering honest and accurate data.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Metalab Ventures OÜ, its founders, employees, partners, and licensors (including Zydrunas Savickas as a partner and licensor) accept no liability for any injury, illness, or adverse health outcome arising from your use of the App or your adherence to training recommendations generated by the App.

This disclaimer does not limit or exclude liability where such exclusion is prohibited by mandatory provisions of applicable law, including EU consumer protection law.
