			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em><strong>Why don’t I use my equipment at home?  I’ve spent hundreds of dollars on free weights and a cross trainer.</strong></em></p>
<p>Do you have some unused equipment sitting idly at your house?</p>
<p>Lots of participants in the <strong>STRONG study</strong> have this same dilemma. At some point, a little voice inside their head spoke to them and said… “You need to do something!”</p>
<p>So off to purchase some <strong>gym equipment</strong> they went.</p>
<p>And tried to do some exercises.</p>
<p>And pulled up very sore.</p>
<p>And questioned if it was the right sort of <a href="http://www.geelongsgym.com.au/classes.php">exercise</a>?</p>
<p>And wondered what on earth they were doing?</p>
<p>And challenged whether it was a good thing?  The right thing?</p>
<p>Every participant echoes these words… “I’m so glad I have you to guide me.”</p>
<p><strong>The STRONG study is about educating the participants on exercise.</strong></p>
<p>It’s about <strong>building confidence</strong>.  It’s focused on <strong>progressively increasing weights </strong>and a <strong>range of exercises</strong> so that the workouts are <strong>manageable</strong>.</p>
<p>The <strong>STRONG study </strong>is about commitment to <em><strong>improving quality of life</strong></em>.<a title="Geelong's Gym" href="http://www.GeelongsGym.com.au" target="_blank"></a></p>
