PHYSICAL ACTIVITY READINESS QUESTIONNAIRE (PAR-Q)

For most people, physical activity should not pose a problem or hazard. This PAR-Q  has been designed to identify the small number of people for whom physical activity might be inappropriate or for those who should seek medical advice concerning the type of activity most suitable for them.
‘Fitness with Michelle’ classes are mixed ability fitness classes.
This health questionnaire will tell you whether it is necessary for you to seek further advice from your doctor or a qualified exercise professional before becoming more physically active.
