Fitness Readiness Questionnaire Template
A pre-exercise questionnaire for personal trainers to collect clients’ contact details, health concerns, medications, fitness goals, and consent.
When to use it
- Before a new client’s first training session
- When a client returns after a break from training
- Before starting a new exercise program
- When a client reports a change in health or medication
What it asks
- What is your name?
- What is your email address?
- What is your phone number?
- Have you ever been diagnosed with a heart condition or experienced chest pain during exercise?
- Have you experienced dizziness or fainting during or after exercise?
- Do you have joint problems, injuries, or movement limits that may affect exercise?
- Do you currently take any medication that may affect exercise?
- If yes, please list the medication or share any relevant details.
- What are your fitness goals?
- I confirm these answers are accurate and agree to discuss any concerns with my trainer before exercising.
Why it should be encrypted
Answers may reveal heart or chest symptoms, dizziness, injuries, and medication details. They should be readable only by the client and the trainer who needs them to discuss exercise readiness.
Tips
- Tell clients how to share urgent health concerns directly with you.
- Customize the questions to match your training services and intake process.
- Review responses with clients before exercise and clarify any concerns.
