Fed up with being a 98-pound weakling, Paul sets out on a course to become 'big and strong' as a gymnast, so guys will stop picking on him and girls will sit up and take notice. But even when he becomes strong, he finds popularity and social acceptance elusive. Then partially paralyzed acrobatic gymnast Tara tracks him down as a potential mixed pairs partner.

Tara believes her intimacy with her former partner was what caused her accident and agrees to date Paul, but she has rules about their relationship. Their closeness as partners, his partnership in her physical rehabilitation, and pressure from friends, family, and other performers drive the two closer and closer as they approach the grand performance that will re-establish Tara as a gymnast.

But when Paul's gymnastics world begins to fall apart, his girlfriend leaves him, his new partner becomes abusive, and his dream of becoming an Olympic gymnast begins to fade, he must dig deep inside to discover the true meaning of strength and find a purpose for his life.
