a dead horse?

I thought I would just dust off this old horse and beat it a few more times



OK. I admit it, I am an old fart. But even though I constantly outperform my buff 18-19 year olds boys lifting stuff, I am well aware that experience and leverage are a learned skill. Think bags of cement and my son watching me hoist one over my left shoulder to dump it into the mixer. He couldn't get it past his chest, but he bench presses 4x I can! He ended up having the mixer arms rip the bag and a third of it landed on the ground, and on my shoes

He didn't see my stepwise hoist using my legs and arms, stomach, upper stomach, lower chest, upper chest, and up and over. 80 pounds.

Yes. It is skill, not brawn that allows us to punch WAY above our weight. But this still looks rough to me.
