The success of the harness races held this season are due to local horses and horsemen BY PATRICK RAFTIS There are a lot of misconceptions about body building and weight training that often cause people to go into it with the wrong idea or shy away from it altogether. That is one of the main reasons why the East End Gym in Goderich is sponsoring a men's and women's body building and fitness seminar on Sunday, August 16. The seminar will feature male and female competitive body builders Rob Hutson and Sue Montgomery of Boss Gym Equipment Ltd., Woodstock. Hutson is the 1984 Southern Ontario Body Building Champion. He was also Provincial Grand Prix .Champion in 1983 -and.,. Southwestern Ontario Champion in 1983. ' Montgomery's credentials include third place finishes in both the Canadian and On-• tario junior competitions this year. Mark Lassaline, a charter member of the East End Gym fitness club, emphasizes that the seminar will focus not just on body building but also on fitness through weight training, proper exercise and diet. 1 Ai ld "Body building is jurat weight training takento its limit," says Lasaa'line, adding that the seminar will be of interest to anyone concerned about fitness and not just those interested in building a Charles Altas-type physique. Many women are afraid that working out with weights will leave them looking like a female Lou Ferrigno, says Lassaline. "Look at her," he says, poipting to a poster of Montgomery's,stream-lined form. "She's no hulk." Weight training can be tailored to the in- dividual, whether they want to really tone their physique or just trim off a few inches in certain spots, he says. ltsoenptions are just the opposite with men, says Lassaliffir' ,wu=""au+ Own "If a guy thinks he can come in here and work out once a week for six months and walk out looking like Arnold Schwart- zenager, it's not going to happen. " The seminar will cover all topics concern- ing health and fitness. There will also be a question period and Hutson. and Mon- tgomery will demonstrate the use of some of the training equipment and may even do some posing, says Lassaline. Lassaline is also hoping the seminar will stimulate some interest in the activity at the - East End Gym. Thegym is in its fifth year of operation and c rentiy has between 35 and 40 members who come in and make use of the facilities at their own convenience. The seminar will be held at the gym, located at the corner of East Street and Cambria Road and will start at 2 p.m. Everyone is welcome to attend.
