Like it’s easier if you hug their legs while they are standing up and hoist them up. I had a short friend who was able to do lift me when I was a kid, and could hold me in the air for at least a few seconds. How was this possible? Which muscles were important? Was it more about strength or technique?Is lifting someone heavier than you an impressive feat?
In: Physics
I would say you have to bend over less but also there’s a lot of friction involved in a hug lift that is missing lifting from the floor. Friction means you don’t need as much strength to maintain grip. All the strength goes into lifting. Try a hug type lift with just your hands to give you grip. Should be much harder.
