Medical Certificate for non-professional sports activities

In order to access fitness centres and gyms in Italy, students must have a valid medical certificate (the validity is usually 1 year since the date of issuance). In some cases, a medical certificate from a general practitioner outside of Italy, may be accepted if provided in English, with GP’s signature and stamp. Depending on the type of sport, specific requirements may have to be met, such as ECG read, etc. 
In Italy, it is possible to get a medical certificate at private health centres for an average cost of 30 € to 60 €.
