^^ That is very light, are you short or something ?

Yea, in fact I just hit 5'3 a couple months ago, I think in december I was 5'2 and half haha, I'm behind in development!

probably not. but i can still throw a punch if i have too.. if i connect for maxium damage thats a whole nother story

Iam so thin that I have to keep moving from side to side in order for people to see me, but I do seem to have superhuman strenght, at the Reading Rock festival when somewhat drunk, two large friends couldnt believe how I could drag the pair of them along the grass.

One of my friends tried the clutch on my Norton Commando and could just about pull it in, I proceeded to show him how I could constantly pull it in and out a fast speed.

Only the other day at work this big fella asked how much I weighed which was a lot less than him, then tried to push me and couldnt work out why he couldnt move me as I ws so styrong.

Best one is how it took two men too lift my cars cast iron V8 engine block that I had loaded on my own.

Thing is, I do feel Ive now worn my spine out so have to be carefull as it doesnt seem to match my invisible muscles.

I am suprisingly strong for my size, being only about 130 pounds and 5ft 8in tall because I can perform many tasks larger guys sometimes have trouble with at my shop. I have lifted and carried speaker cabinets, TV's and other stuff that weigh at least as much as I do. The others in the shop are frequently amazed at all the junk I can carry with me when on a job, huffing it several blocks from a parking garage. I attribute it to having good endurance, which I've had my whole life. I am perhaps the strongest I've ever been in my life now, my endurance has always been with me even though my strength when I was in school was quite a bit lacking from what it is now. I can run several miles and barely even get out of breath. I remember swimming the mile swim in the Boy Scouts, then getting out of the water when it was complete wondering "is that all there was?" Other kids were faster than me, but they barely had enough strength to walk back to their campsite.

Not at all. I'm very slim and frail. I'm neither strong nor fit.

I can't judge my strength properly so in spite of my fragility I'm sometimes more careful than I should when I'm manipulating a thing because I'm afraid that I could destroy something or hurt somebody even if I know exquisitely well I'm not strong enough to do it.

Funny someone should mention 'ret*d strength'. If i am angry i am almost unstoppable. For someone all of five feet tall, i can lift a lot of heavy stuff. I have also lost a lot of weight and am noticing how getting old means your body too. I used to hoist 50pound bags of sugar above my head... now not so much.
I still have an unusually large amount of endurance when it comes to working. I think it has to do with the amount of focus. My height also plays a part, as i am short limbed, which means more leverage and shorter muscle fibers. Plus a low center of gravity. I am starting to learn though, that some things i can let others pick up for me. it sure has saved my back and shoulders.
