Lifting, :burke:
I see these 'jacked' dudes at the rock climbing gym get shut. down. All the time. Strength is about more than just mass.

For real though, the strongest ive ever been was when I worked roofing.

Seriously man. Unloading palettes of bundles, each bundle 70lbs. Carrying them up ladders if youre dumb and dont stock enough. And then when youre laying em you gotta move fast, and shit, youre constantly working against an incline. All day every day. I would get a soda on the way home just so i could keep my eyes open on the drive.

When I was doing roofing, about 40 years ago, we didn't have those ladder lifts or Lulls to stock the roof.  Everything was carried up the ladder by men.

now you use the lifts or Lulls huh? You should carry the stuff up ladders again to feel like a man. Hey I wasn't always in sales and in distribution etc. stuff like that. Not saying it's necessarily high end, but definitely not like construction waking up at 5:30 every day.

Man you can't pour all concrete into framework to mold it. Some spots have to be remodeled or however you'd say that, "smoothed and evened out" I supposed is what is normally described, scraping concrete onto a wall with a spatula and smoothing it out with a sponge is probably the most descriptive. Anyway if the mixer is upstairs, you have to carry each dry bag of portland grade dry cement up the stairs flight by flight no air conditioning none of that shit. I'm sure you know how humid it gets this far south.

Personally I think you carpenters complain too much, hey what's a few 2x4s? I'm sure your kids weighed more then that when they were young and you had to carry them :smirk:

You've said it yourself, you are an old man indeed :tongue:

I'm not a laborer any more but I can still tote stuff as necessary.  2x4 are light as fuck.  That's why you carry 8 at a time.  20' 2x12s and flitch plates?  That's another thing entirely

I used to have to help carry railroad ties as a summer job when I was a teenager.  I wonder if I could still cut it. :strokebeard:

A lot of shipyard workers are usually beasts just from lifting heavy pipe, climbing, welding, and whatever else.

I'll tell you what one of my good buddies is a former navy submarine welder and he doesn't work out a day in his life really besides playing racquet sports a little, but his hands are like vice grips, and he is a spry twitch muscle kind of guy with a kind of focus and intensity that i've almost never seen in other men.

And he is in his 50s. I would rather fight a 20 year old weight lifter than this man.

You know what I meant but yeah, a lot of shit hurts more than it used to.  Elbow tendinitis is a big one but it isn't too bad.  Yet.  It was worse 30 years ago before I threw away the metal shank hammer and got wooden ones and nail guns.  Most of my work now is directing, calculating and cutting.
