On behalf of the PAR-Q+ Collaboration, we are pleased to announce that the 2014 PAR-Q+ and 2014 Q-AAP+ were officially released recently in the Health & Fitness Journal of Canada and this website (the official website for the PAR-Q+ and Q-AAP+). The 2014 versions of the PAR-Q+ and Q-AAP+ replace all previous versions and reflect another year of systematic evaluation. We are honoured to continue to work with colleagues from around the world on the evaluation and refinement of evidence-based best practice in pre-participation screening and risk stratification.

THE BENEFITS OF ENGAGING IN REGULAR PHYSICAL ACTIVITY/EXERCISE FAR OUTWEIGH THE RISKS!
Active individuals are at a reduced risk for at least 25 chronic medical conditions.
Whether a young child or an older adult, our new risk stratification strategy reduces the barriers to physical activity participation for EVERYONE.
The PAR-Q+ Collaboration is proud to highlight the pioneering Vascular 2013 (October 17-20, 2013, Montreal, Canada). This innovative and one-time Canadian event brings together four different scientific meetings related to vascular health.
We are pleased to welcome you to our website dedicated to the new Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire for Everyone (PAR-Q+) and electronic Physical Activity Readiness Medical Examination (ePARmed-X+). This is the OFFICIAL AND CONSENSUS-PANEL APPROVED website for the PAR-Q+ and ePARmed-X+.
