I'm going to wade on on this even if I am a low time VFR single engine person.

I did remark that a “go around” only implies that you “go around” and therefore you only need to arrest the descent, which means you wont have to fight the trim setting as much and everything becomes much more manageable (you then apply power when you need to climb of course).
I respectfully suggest that the day you do have to do a go around, on a nice hot day, at somewhere near max weight, when the proverbial cow/roo/rabbit/powerline jumps out at you, then
you will require full power and
you will have to fight the trim.
So get used to it right now in your training and master the trim change and build up the muscles.
I had a friend who destroyed his aircraft and was lucky not to kill himself and his entire family when his new and slightly unfamiliar aircraft got away from him on a go around after he stuffed up his approach. All it takes is a few seconds if you aren't ready for whats coming. I think it was at Mataranka.
