Is This Program Right for Me?
This is an introductory-level program designed for adults over 30 years of age who want to become more physically active and are ready to incorporate healthy eating and physical activity into their daily lives.
To ensure your safety we ask that you please answer yes or no to the following questions:
Yes No
Are you 70 years of age or older?
Has your doctor ever said that you have heart condition and that you should only do
physical activity recommended by a doctor?
Do you feel pain in your chest when you do physical activity?
In the past month, have you had chest pain when you are not doing physical activity?
Is your resting blood pressure greater than 150/95? If you’re not sure, you can visit your
local drug store (e.g., Shoppers Drug Mart) to obtain a reading from their automated blood
pressure machines.
Are you currently receiving chemotherapy treatment?
Have you had cardiovascular problems (e.g., angina, heart attack)?
Do you know of any other reason that would make it unsafe to do physical activity?
If you answered YES to any of the questions, we ask that you please take the physician clearance form to review with your doctor to ensure it is safe for you to participate in physical activity. Please bring completed Physician Clearance Form with you at the time of registration or you may fax the completed form to: 506-447-3058; Attn: Dominique Legault-Moore.
If you answered NO to all the questions or once you have obtained clearance to participate in the program, contact Dominique Legault- Moore (program coordinator) to reserve spot.
