PAR-Q (Physical Activity Readiness - Questionnaire)

PAR-Q

If you answered 'Yes':

Answer yes to any of these, and it is recommended that you consult a physician before taking a fitness test or substantially increasing your physical activity. Please provide medical clearance and any specific exercise limitations you may have. In most cases, you will still be able to do any activity you want as long as you adhere to some guidelines.

If you answered 'No':

If you answered no to all the PAR-Q questions, you can be reasonably sure that you can exercise safely and have a low risk of having any medical complications from exercise. It is still important to start slowly and increase gradually.
