Users are advised that it is the responsibility of each individual to ensure that he or she has achieved such levels of fitness and general health as will allow the use of the Gym without injury or accident.

Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire (PAR-Q)
If you are between the ages of 15 and 69, the PAR-Q will tell you if you should check with your doctor before you significantly change your physical activity patterns. If you are over 69 years of age and are not used to being very active, check with your doctor. Please read carefully and answer each one honestly:

1. Has your doctor ever said you have a heart condition and that you should only do physical activity recommended by a doctor?
2. Do you feel pain in your chest when you do physical activity?
3. In the past month, have you had a chest pain when you were not doing physical activity?
4. Do you lose you balance because of dizziness or do you ever lose consciousness?
5. Do you have a bone or joint problem (for example, back, knee, or hip) that could be made worse by a change in your physical activity?
6. Is your doctor currently prescribing medication for your blood pressure or heart condition?
7. Do you know of any other reason why you should not do physical activity?

If you answer YES to one or more questions? You should consult with your doctor to clarify that it is safe for you to become physically active at this current time and in your current state of health.
If you answer NO to all questions? It is reasonably safe for you to participate in physical activity, gradually building up from your current ability level. A fitness appraisal can help determine your ability levels.

Note: This physical activity clearance is valid for a maximum of 12 months from the date it is completed and becomes invalid if your condition changes so that you would answer YES to any of the 7 questions.

By signing this electronic document I confirm that I accept the conditions contained in the Rockhouse CrossFit Disclaimer and I will obtain medical advice if indicated by the PARQ before commencement of increased physical activity.
