Volunteers needed.

Paul at UWA in the Human Movement area is looking for more people for his weight-loss through exercise gym program.

If you think you could get to UWA for 1 hour, 3 times a week and want a reasonably gentle regime then let me know and I'll introduce you – anyone who fits into the category of 'could lose some weight' is eligible.

You get a free, 3 month personally managed gym program and he gets lab bunnies to measure for his control group.

Getting started involves a fitness test, a stress test (mandatory UWA thingy to make sure the exercise doesn't kill you) and a DEXA scan¹ – which is the –real- reason to do this.

¹DEXA Scan = Full body composition scan, you can find out how much bone, lean muscle and fat you have AND it comes out in a pretty picture!

I'm definitely interested in this, provided I'm far enough into 'could lose some weight' territory and he doesn't mind waiting until after next weekend. :) How does one go about being introduced?

Don't make me call you a dirty man again.

Fine, don't send the photo. The $20 is fine by me.

I'm planning on going briefly tonight - I shall pass on your contact details if this is acceptable to you?

Am not training this Wed/Fri because hip pain is reaching unendurable levels - am hoping restipoos will cure me.

Please get me some info - if I can get to bed a bit earlier, I wouldn't mind doing the exercise before work - probably Mon, Tue, Thu if that would suit thingo's schedule.

Will do.
