Legal Document
KNOW ALL PERSONS BY THESE PRESENTS, that I, [principal_name] (the "Principal"), a resident of the State of [state_law], being of sound mind and under no duress, do hereby make, constitute, and appoint [agent_name] (the "Agent" or "Attorney-in-Fact") as my true and lawful Agent, to act for me and in my name, place, and stead, with respect to the powers and authority described herein.
WHEREAS, the Principal desires to appoint the Agent to act on the Principal's behalf with respect to certain matters, as more particularly described herein; and
WHEREAS, the Agent is willing to accept such appointment and to act in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this instrument; and
WHEREAS, the Principal intends this Power of Attorney to be governed by the laws of the State of [state_law] and all applicable provisions of the Uniform Power of Attorney Act as adopted therein.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Principal hereby declares and grants this Power of Attorney as follows:
The Principal hereby appoints [agent_name] as the Principal's Attorney-in-Fact (the "Agent"). The Agent shall have the authority to act on behalf of the Principal in all matters described in this instrument, subject to any limitations expressly set forth herein. The Agent shall exercise such powers in a fiduciary capacity, in good faith, and in the best interests of the Principal at all times. The Agent shall act with the care, competence, and diligence ordinarily exercised by agents in similar circumstances and shall not engage in any self-dealing or conflict of interest unless expressly authorized herein.
The authority granted to the Agent under this Power of Attorney is designated as follows and shall be construed in accordance with the applicable type of authority selected below.
Subject to the type of authority designated above, the Principal hereby grants the Agent the following specific powers and authority: [powers_granted] The Agent shall exercise the foregoing powers prudently and in the Principal's best interests. In the event of any ambiguity regarding the scope of the powers granted herein, such ambiguity shall be resolved in favor of granting the Agent the authority reasonably necessary to carry out the Principal's stated intentions. The Agent may employ and compensate, at the Principal's expense, such professionals, advisors, accountants, and attorneys as the Agent deems reasonably necessary to assist in the performance of the Agent's duties hereunder.
This Power of Attorney shall become effective as of 2026-04-19, subject to any springing provisions described in Section 2 above.
This Power of Attorney shall expire and terminate automatically on 2026-04-19, unless sooner revoked by the Principal or terminated by operation of law.

Any actions taken by the Agent after the expiration date shall be void and of no legal effect.
Any third party who receives a copy of this Power of Attorney, whether original, photocopy, or electronically transmitted, may rely upon the authority granted herein and may act in accordance with the Agent's instructions without liability to the Principal or the Principal's estate, heirs, or assigns. No third party shall be required to inquire into the validity or continuing effectiveness of this instrument, nor shall any third party be liable for acting in good faith reliance upon this Power of Attorney. A third party who refuses to honor this Power of Attorney may be liable for attorneys' fees and damages as provided by applicable law. The Principal hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any third party who acts in good faith reliance upon the representations and authority of the Agent under this instrument.
The Principal reserves the right to revoke, amend, or modify this Power of Attorney at any time, provided that the Principal has the legal capacity to do so. Any revocation, amendment, or modification shall be in writing and shall be effective upon delivery of written notice to the Agent and to any third party who has previously relied upon this instrument. Until a third party receives actual written notice of revocation, such third party may continue to rely upon the authority granted herein and shall not be liable for any actions taken in good faith reliance upon this Power of Attorney prior to receiving such notice. Upon revocation, the Agent shall promptly return to the Principal all documents, records, property, and funds in the Agent's possession or control that belong to or relate to the affairs of the Principal.
This Power of Attorney shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of [state_law], including but not limited to the Uniform Power of Attorney Act as adopted by the State of [state_law] and any amendments thereto.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have executed this Power of Attorney on the date first written above.
Principal
Name: Principal
Date: 2026-04-19
Running a CrossFit affiliate in California involves high-stakes liability management, from enforcing member waivers under California Civil Code § 1550 to navigating AB5 worker classifications for your coaches. If you are incapacitated or unavailable, your 'box' cannot pause; gym rent must be paid, equipment maintenance logs must be updated, and Cal-OSHA safety standards must be upheld. This specific Power of Attorney allows a trusted agent to manage your CrossFit Affiliate License, handle CCPA data requests, and ensure your PRs and member safety continue without interruption, fully compliant with California's unique legal landscape.
Beyond the standard power of attorney sections, this template adds fields specific to CrossFit Gym Owner:
A power of attorney (POA) is a legal document that enables one person (the principal) to designate another person (the agent or attorney-in-fact) to make decisions and act on their behalf in specified or all matters. The document serves as a legal empowerment that allows the agent to manage affairs such as financial transactions, health care decisions, and legal proceedings, thereby ensuring the principal's affairs can be managed even if they are incapacitated or unavailable to oversee them directly.
Member Injury Liability
Use of comprehensive membership agreements and liability waivers that include clauses outlining risks and releasing the gym from liability to the extent permitted by law.
Equipment Failure
Regular maintenance and inspection logs, and including indemnification and limitation of liability clauses in contracts with equipment manufacturers.
Yes. By granting specific authority over 'Business Operations and Contracts,' your agent can execute membership agreements and liability waivers. To be enforceable in California, these must be clear and unambiguous to meet the standards for protecting your gym from member injury claims and equipment failure liability.
While the Power of Attorney grants administrative control, your agent must still comply with Cal. Lab. Code §§ 2750.3. Your agent will be responsible for ensuring coaches are correctly classified under the ABC test, as misclassification remains a primary contractual pain point for California gym owners.
Yes. Under the California Probate Code, a Power of Attorney must either be acknowledged before a notary public or signed by at least two qualified witnesses to be legally effective for managing business transactions and health studio registrations.
If you grant authority over 'Regulatory and Legal Affairs,' your agent can respond to data access or deletion requests required by the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), ensuring your gym avoids heavy statutory penalties.
