Am I too heavy for a piggyback?

[Girlwithnoname]

My guy friends and my girl friends sometimes offer me a piggy back and I always say no because I feel too heavy. I weigh 138 and I'm 5'3. Am I too heavy?

Have you ever tried to give a piggyback yourself? (If not, you really should... Gives you a much better idea about what a person of a certain size feels like to carry that way.) It's one of the easier ways to carry someone though.

I have a female friend, Katie, who has given me and one of my guy friends piggybacks a number of times, and I weigh about 40lbs. more than she does. My friend is 25lbs. heavier than me. So yeah, your weight should really be NO problem for most people you know.

If a dude can't lift 138 pounds (especially with his back and legs to support him), then he probably needs to hit the gym.

The guy offered. 138 isn't that much to lift. Heck, I'm 5'4 and am 110. I feel too heavy for piggyback rides. And he's 6'5. 190 lbs. So really there's no issue with the weight.

Im 128 and people give me piggy back rides all the time. I always ask if I'm heavy, but not even my friends think that.

Not at all lol that's nothing... If you we're 180 or more I would say I don't blame you for feeling that way... I weigh 238 and my bro picked me up the other day he's not very muscular and I thought I would mess up his back but he was fine... I say let people figure out the hard way and just let them do it as long as your okay with it

I'm 52kg (114lbs) and I can carry my 84kg (185lb) brother. I've had 58kg (127lb) guys throw me over their shoulder so I don't think you have anything to worry about. You're definitely not fat, so don't feel bad. :)

you're not too heavy and don't get upset about that, just live happy and do it!

I thought you were going to say you weighed 238, lol. 138 isn't to heavy for most guys! 8-)

You are perfect for piggyback
