Poll: Are you strong? (grrrrr)

[Puzzles]

This sounds ridiculous, but I could lift my 90kg dad when I was 12 and about 50kg. I did a lot of wrestling and stuff.

Then I did nothing for about 5 years, and got weak as hell.

Now, weights again and im just moderately strong. Just an average guy really.

 

[Sonicron]

I'm fairly strong. Not WWF-strong, but still pretty damn strong... actually that's one of the few things about myself I take pride in.

 

[Ocelot GT]

I can't actually tell. Whenever I get in a fight I seem to be able to hurt people, but then people always tell me that the people I hurt were really weak, even if previously they said they were really strong!

Everyones out to get me

Stop beating up seniors!

My upper-body is very weak. Seriously, I can't even bench 20kg.

Quick as lightning though.

 

[Jharry5]

No, I'd say I'm kinda below average for my height/gender etc.
It's kind of annoying that everyone thinks I should be really stong just 'cos I'm a guy. I tried the whole weight lifting thing to prove them wrong.
Needless to say, it didn't really work...

 

[Ocelot GT]

No XD
I have to get my boyfriend to open jars for me
But I know how to defend myself if needs be.

You don't need muscle when you've got BEAR strength mace :3

 

[Mandal0re]

im stronger than most although not unusually strong.i work out regularly and do a job with a fair bit of manual work so probably down to that really. from the age of 13 ive done push ups daily as well so that helps to build upper body strength whilst developing.

 

[Iron Mal]

I would say that I posess above average strength for a person of my stature, I'm not saying that I'm superhuman in that area (that would be one of my friends who fits that description) but I'm still pretty damn good (I will claim that I'm easily tougher or more durable than pretty much everyone I know).

As they put it in one of the X-men films, 'I'm the Juggernaut, *****!'.

 

[Abedeus]

Fairy strong. About 40-50 on my arms, about 200 on legs.

Kilograms, not pounds. But I do have weak hands, so I can CARRY a lot, it's harder to lift for me.

I'm first ex aequo first in my class when it comes to weight-lifting.

 

[The Maddest March Hare]

I discovered (by being "attacked", a.k.a tackled, due to 6th form boredom) that I have the carrying capacity to happily accommodate 2 rugby build men, one on each shoulder, and carry them outside and drop them into puddles. It stopped the annoying assaults for about the whole of a day, once they dried out the decided to go back to diving on my for shits and giggles.

So yes, I think I'm relatively strong.

 

[Sad Robot]

Last time I checked I bench pressed some 115 kg (about 255 pounds I guess). So slightly above average I guess but nothing impressive.

 

[Pyotr Romanov]

I'm stronger than most people my age, well, in a fight anyways. Though I seem unable to hurt them, and automaticaly only aim for the stomach so they get down on their knees... People seem to think I'm weak, which is awesome, because I get to see the surprise on everyone's faces when I lock a guy up against the wall with my elbow at his throat. Ahh, that one time really was funny, as he was the "cool" guy in class.

 

[FaustCainus]

My arms are weak, I can bench about 90... legs are strong, I can squat 250 pounds. So I'm working on arm strength and the ability to run further the one block

 

[Sovvolf]

I'd say I'm pretty damn strong for my height and weight. I train a lot, lifting weights and such along with my martial arts so well I should say so...

 

[mindclockwork]

i voted for 'fairly strong'. tho most of my muscles are in my feet, being a soccer player.

 

[Cilliandrew]

People have always been surprised by how strong i am. I've had a pretty slender build all my life, but i played alot of sports when i was in my teens and then when i started college i did alot of manual labour.

Constantly have people saying "omigod, you're strong!".

And i could hit a baseball farther then anybody on my travel team.

 

[JohanGasMask]

i used to be in construction during the summer and when i got back i could beat guys who practiced boxing in arm wrestling.
