FOR GIRLS WITH BOYFRIENDS: What would you do if you outlifted your boyfriend in a weightlifting challenge?
Question: This question is about what a girl would do if she outlifts her boyfriend in a weightlifting challenge. As a guy, I know exactly how it feels because I was outlifted by my girlfriend!!! I had a barbell set in my apartment so one day, when my girlfriend came over, she and I decided to lift weights. I didn't have any weightlifting apparatus so we simply decided to take turns doing the clean and jerk which involves lifting a barbell from the floor up over the shoulders (the clean) and then lifting it overhead (the jerk). My girlfriend's muscles are larger than my muscles are but I was confident that I could outlift her because I am very tall even though I am thin while she is short and stocky. My girlfriend went first. As I watched in amazement, she easily cleaned, and then she just as easily jerked, a heavy barbell and then she looked way up at me and she said to me: LET'S SEE YOU DO THIS!!! Then she watched while I succeeded at the clean but not without a really hard struggle. She continued to watch while I failed miserably in my attempt at the jerk. I knew by then that I was already beaten. MY GIRLFRIEND OUTLIFTED ME!!! This is a true story. I AM NOT MAKING THIS UP!!! I am sure lots of other guys can tell the same true story about being outlifted by their girlfriends. Besides having larger muscles than I have, I believe there is another reason why my girlfriend outlifted me: She has a weight advantage over me. She weighs quite a bit more than I do despite the fact that I am quite a bit taller than she is. Although I thought I could outlift her because I am taller than she is, she proved that my greater height over her did not matter. We did not break up after she outlifted me. She simply demonstrated to me, as well as to herself, that she has more physical strength in her upper body than I have in my upper body. She and I already know that her legs are multiple times stronger than my legs are. What would you do if you outlifted your boyfriend the way my girlfriend outlifted me, demonstrating to him, as well as to yourself, that you have more physical strength in your upper body than he has in his upper body?
