I always knew my wife is quite strong, but she makes it a non-topic. Trying to lift me is out of the question. However, our 17-year old son was messing with her, "attacking" her from behind. She then scooped him up in a cradle, saying "don't even go there, I'm still your mom". My wife is sweet, pretty and of average height, weighing about 60 kg. She doesn't have defined muscles, but her bicep makes a noticeable bulge. I've seen her curl a 50lb barbell for 12 repetitions. Occasionally, she will display her strength. That can happen when she's a bit tipsy and/or she's in a playful mood. One time, when we spent the night at her parents', this happened. We were foolig around in bed in the morning. She suddenly asked me if I think her arms are too big. I said they look very nice. She then flexed a bicep and said "kiss it!". After getting out of bed, when talking to her family, she was still in that mood, saying something about being strong. Her dad said "Oh, yeah. Let's arm wrestle." Well, I assume he regretted asking, because he was humiliated. He even tucked his arm in, making her stretch across the table. I managed to snap a picture of the "battle". |

Yep! Awesome stuff!
That's the thing I found the absolute most fun about L&C! It's incredible when you can find a female partner who is really into it like this and enjoys challenging herself to do new/harder lifts.
My wife went through a phase where I got her interested in it, and it helped she'd decided she wanted to do weightlifting in the gym again too. (She did it back in her college days, and we found there was some of that "muscle memory" effect where lifting heavy again made the muscles grow pretty quickly back to the size they used to be from working out years before.) I never really got her to do more than some leg presses, piggybacks and calf raises with me on her back, but she was clearly strong enough to do more lifting with me than she did. I think she was conflicted, because she's always been a bigger girl (5'10" and 235lbs. or so currently) and wanted to lose some weight vs building any bigger muscles and bulking up further. But I'd actually gained some weight myself and hadn't weighed myself in years. So when she asked me how much i weighed, I told her "around 190-192" and was actually more like 220. She picked me up in a piggyback from sitting on the edge of the bed with my legs over the edge, using just her arm strength to boost me up, and bounced me on her back a few times, catching me in her hands under my thighs - saying, "Hmm.. ok. You feel like you weigh a little more than 190." But the only time I really saw a better display of what she could really lift was when she was goofing around with our oldest son. He just turned 18 and he's a big kid ... 6' tall and built like a football quarterback. Weighs about 295-300. She scooped him up into a cradle carry like a giant baby and rocked him back and forth, teasing him that she could still do it like when he was little. Quote:

pics?
No, unfortunately I don't. She probably would have found that kind of weird if I did try to photograph it since it was more of a spontaneous thing with them goofing around. (She'd know I would have wanted a photo like that with ulterior motives.)
He eats us out of house and home though! When she went to scoop him up for the cradle, I really expected she wasn't going to quite get him off the ground and would wind up dropping him or something. She struggled a little until she got her arms horizontal but she was determined to do it, and looked a little bit proud of herself at that point, when she rocked him back and forth. |

My gf is 5?9.5? - 5?10? and 185lbs, and she had naturally strong legs where when she started leg pressing she was doing 450-500lbs (380lbs of plates) for up to 8 reps. Her calves are like marble upside down coke bottles, she has actually sitter me on her lap on just one leg for up to 10 minutes at a time, has cradled me, front straddled me etc. She even piggybacked me up the stairs a couple weeks ago.
