    Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire (PARQ)


    We will use the Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire (PAR-Q) to assist you in starting an exercise program. The Club’s collection and review of this information in no way constitutes a certification of your fitness to participate in any exercise program. In any case, HCNY Athletics recommends that you consult your physician before starting any exercise program and reserves the right to require written permission from your physician before you start this program.

    1. Has a doctor ever said that you have a heart condition and recommended only medically supervised activity?

    2. Do you have chest pain brought on by physical activity?

    3. Have you developed chest pain in the past month?

    4. Have you on one or more occasions lost consciousness or fallen over as a result of dizziness?

    5. Do you have bone or joint problems that could be aggravated by the proposed physical activity?

    6. Is your doctor currently prescribing drugs (for example, water pills) for your blood pressure, heart condition or cholesterol?

    7. Are you aware, through your own experience or doctor’s advice, of any other physical reason that would prohibit you from exercising without medical supervision?

    8. If female, and pregnant, has your doctor recommended restrictions to exercise?
