How hard is it for a short guy to lift a girl?

[Sarah696]

I'm 5'9" and 160 lbs and i wanna ask out this guy who is 5'3", he's very fit, somewhat ripped, and according to his ex is 132 lbs and has 10 percent body fat. so anyway, in a relationship it's important to me that the guy is able to lift me, do you think he can do it? how hard would it be? do i need to lose weight? how much? i would appreciate answers from both guys (most helpful is short fit guys) and girls who had similar boyfriends. thank you.

I'm short (181 cm) and lift weights, but I'm not fit. I have a tubby belly. I can tell you short guys tend to be THE STRONGEST because of a low center of gravity and being much closer to the ground. I've been told I can lift pretty easily and effortlessly compared to other guys BECAUSE I'm the shortest guy. Although you outweigh him by quite a bit, you're not exactly heavy or anything, and are probably pretty fit yourself. Unless he is a weakling (only does cardio), he should have no trouble lifting you. He'd likely do so better than men who are six feet and taller and don't lift, because they have a worse center of gravity, meaning they'd be more likely to topple over trying to lift you, especially if they're scrawny and weak.

Uhmm 181cm is not short lol 5'3" (the guy's height) is 160cm but I see what you mean

I would ask him out and see if he can lift you, or ask him how much he can bench press. If you want him to do you against a wall you may have to bend over so he can do you from behind. If you want to be face-to-face while he does you against the wall you may have to bend your knees a little or have a small platform/stepstool handy for him. Don't forget stairs and ladders are great where there's a height difference. In the grand scheme of things height doesn't really matter if you find your soulmate.

He might be able to. You definitely should not lose weight though because it sounds like your weight is good for your height. /g

[Sarah696]

I'm not overweight but I am a bit heavy for my height

Height and strength have nothing to do with each other. In weight lifting height is a disadvantage because a tall person has to life the weight higher than a shorter competitor. Don't take this the wrong way, but a 5-9 160#, you're not exactly petite. Even so, a fit man of any height should be able to lift you.

[slatyb]

Ask him. He'll be thrilled. Will he be able to lift you? Almost certainly.

[Sarah696]

I don't wanna ask, it takes the spontaneity out of it ;p but if he can do it he probably would he has a reputation for being good in bed.

[SHREYASH007]

are you saying that he should be able to life you while some sex position or just normal lifting? normal it is possible but difficult for intercourse purpose.

[Sarah696]

difficult or impossible? and i meant both.

[SHREYASH007]

definitely possible but for sex it can be difficult.

[jahaims]

A fit person should be able to lift 2x their body weight

[ItsMeItsMe1989]

height wouldn't come in to play. it's all about weight of the girl, and how strong he is

[Sarah696]

But like I want him to fuck me against the wall, would that be possible?

[ItsMeItsMe1989]

take that shit to the bedroom, i don't need to know that

[Sarah696]

It's relevant to the question

[ItsMeItsMe1989]

no, it's not

[Sarah696]

Yes it is, by fucking me against the wall I mean the position where the guy picks up the girl and they're facing each other and he's holding her thighs while her legs are spread and he's pounding her against the wall

[JUST1NC]

Sadly I don't have this problem since I'm 6' (ladies ;]) also the only girl I think it would be acceptable to lift without it being weird is not in the same country as me

[Sarah696]

Sorry I don't see how this is helpful in anyway?

[Cowboy6666]

wow thats nice height
I would at least try to see if I can lift you If I were that guy

[Anonymous]

How beautiful of you to date a guy as my height, you really gave me hope and happiness.❤

[Sarah696]

Haha thanks I guess 😂

I am out of shape and am 5'5" but I can lift 160lbs woman.

[Avicenna]

I'd assume he could, yes

[Sarah696]

sorry but could you clarify your reasoning behind that?

[Avicenna]

A guy his size in good shape should be able to lift you.

[Iron_Man]

if he is strong he can do it

Height doesn’t affect muscle density.
