Talk about any other strength feats you have seen by a woman, anything as long as it is strength and clean!

I met up with a FBB in the UK from the wb270 board. It was great, she was really freindly and we had a great time. After some posing i asked her to show off a bit. One of the things she did was bend a narrow road sign with one hand/arm At first she just bent it one way, then the other then the best bit, she sort of pushed the sign back as she was bending it...begining to crush the sign as such. It folded it on it's self and although a narrow road sign was still quite thick. It ended up like a snake when they move if you know what i mean. What a great show of muscle power Mon

Well, being a long-time fan of strong women, I've witnessed quite a few impressive things. Back in high school, for example, we had a co-ed gym class our senior year. When we got to the weight training part of the class, we discovered one of the black gals had VERY strong legs. They had 2 different Universal machines there; one for the guys and one for the women. They were pretty much identical except the women's one had a little less weight on the stacks and a few things seemed to be slightly smaller. This gal was pushing the full stack of weights on the leg press on the women's machine (I believe about 700 or 750lbs.), and complaining it was "too easy". Our coach kept making a big deal about the women not going over to the guy's machine (where I believe the leg press went up to about 1000lbs.). I remember her getting mad about the rule, so when the coach was out of the room, she got one of her female friends to stand on the stack. She easily pressed the whole stack plus her friend's weight. She was one of the cheerleading "base" girls, so she was always trying to flirt with the guys from the football team. After they saw her strength, a few of them made a habit of trying to tackle her, get piggyback rides from her and so on. I know at our senior picnic, I witnessed one of the biggest guys in our class (probably around 300lbs. - and again, on the football team) get lifted by her. There was a small group around watching, and she crouched down in a squat in the grass. I heard the guy saying "I still don't think you can do this!" and she said "Hop on!" He climbed onto her back and she grunted a little, and stood up with his full weight on her, and started walking around. Her friends were cheering, saying things like "Woo! Girl has some LEGS on her!" Talk about any other strength feats you have seen by a woman, anything as long as it is strength and clean! Mon

I guess I'll share one more story... My ex-wife. She wasn't a pro bodybuilder or anything, but she was naturally strong, with a thick, muscular build. She gained muscle easily when she did work out - and she did so on and off again throughout our relationship.
When we first started dating, I remember her showing off her strength to me by laying on her back and asking me to sit on her stomach. She proceeded to raise herself up on her arms and legs and walk around the floor in a "crab walk" while I rode her. (I guess I should note that I was about 5'9" and 170lbs. at the time, while she was 5'6" and around the same weight.)
She also carried me on her back up and down the stairs, on a regular basis - and liked to stand on one leg and raise up as high as she could on her tiptoes while I was still perched on her back.
In fact, her legs (calves especially) got noticeably larger after a while, and she started complaining my weight was "nothing" and way too easy for her. Meanwhile, she weighed herself and realized she had gotten up to a little over 190lbs.! She went to a free trial at a Gold's Gym shortly after this, and I think surprised herself with how strong she really was! She was bench-pressing 170lbs. for reps, and was just unbelievable on the standing calve-press machine. She was *easily* raising up on her tiptoes with 650lbs. on the machine for a number of reps (at least 12 or so). I said "Wow! Can you do more?" She said "Sure!" and kept increasing the weights. It didn't even look like she was really pushing hard or straining until she got up to about 800lbs. She did a couple reps at 900lbs. and stopped, saying "the bar was digging into her shoulders"! I really think if she hadn't already done all the other reps first, she could have done the whole stack of 1000lbs. (or more!) for at least 1-2 reps!
She was always pretty sure she could lift a car off the ground too, if she was able to get under it in a partial squat, with her butt under the bumper or something. She wanted to try that real bad for a while, and we actually went to a parking garage one night to see if we could find a suitable vehicle to try it. We never really did find one though. Everything was either too close to the ground for her to get underneath, or else they were jacked-up trucks and the like, too high for her to squat under and push up on.
Oh yeah, and one last cool thing she did once. She stood on a chair and held her forearms out in front of her, palms up, and let me try doing dips off of her arms. This proved to be a little too hard for her, but I was amazed she was strong enough for me to push down on her arms and get myself lifted up, off the ground. I got about half way through one dip before she tired out.

I was talking to a girl i met, and in conversation i mentioned how i liked female feats of strength. She asked like...and i replied lfting cars, turning cars over! BINGO She told me when she was 15, with the help of two other 15 yr old boys, they turned over a car that was being used for an auto shop project Okay so it's not a solo effort, but just hearing that she enjoyed turning the car over and it made her feel super strong was great to hear. ;D
