Abstract
The aim of this study was to examine the legal dimension to fitness programmes with a view to assessing the extent to which fitness clinics in our society are conscious of what legal obligation binds them in the discharge of their duties. A total of 37 fitness centre’s were drawn from Edo and Delta States and used for the study. A validated, structured questionnaire was used for the study. Results obtained from the study revealed that fitness clinics in Edo and Delta states are least prepared for legal eventualities in the discharge of their duties to their clients.
