The results will allow you to tailor workouts and lifestyle habits to achieve your fitness goals. Contact trainers@ymcamoncton.ca for more information. 1 session: $35 + HST

What is the PARE?
The Physical Abilities Requirement Evaluation (PARE) is an occupational test used to assess a person’s ability to perform the physical demands of police work by simulating a critical incident of chasing, controlling, and apprehending a suspect. It requires you to be in good physical shape. You need to have a fit cardiovascular system as well as good muscular strength and endurance.

The evaluation consists of three stations.

  • Station 1 – Obstacle Course
    This simulates proceeding to the scene of a problem or occurrence.
  • Station 2 – Push/Pull
    This simulates having to physically solve a problem or occurrence.
  • Station 3 – Weight Carry
    This simulates having to remove an object or a person from the scene.

Please note that this will be the last PARE Testing session until further notice.

Nutrition counseling is an ongoing process in which a Nutrition Coach works with you. Education, support, and follow-ups are all part of helping you with dietary decisions.

Our free training consultations are a great way to kick off your workout plan. Trained staff will guide you through the process, offering an equipment orientation and exercise schedule to get you started. Consultations may take up to an hour and are available once every three months as part of your YMCA membership. Simply book an appointment whenever you’re ready!
