Is it possible for a female to be stronger than a male

not always. certainly some of the olympic female lifters are stronger than a small man, but they are generally shorter and that kind of height is not necessarily good for the mechanics of weight lifting, which unfortunately must remain one of the few arbiters of strength. I maintain that in shape at 128 pounds and 5'8'' I will be stronger than your average 240 lb 6'5'' woman.

 

You'll not be stronger than a 6'5 240lb woman... to be that big, they must be a mutant or something.

 

I know a 6'5" woman, she's about 200 pounds, no fat. In shape, and she knows how to fight. She'd **** you up Aramini, seriously.

maybe in a fight her height would be insurmountable, but is she really stronger than me? Can she bench 255 and curl 60 lb dumb bells? (as I said, strength is not the same as getting your ass handed to you - weak guys can beat strong guys - but one of the best measures of strength must be relegated to weight lifting. I can conceivably beat a 200 lb man who is not a smart fighter with speed and intelligent flurrying, using my legs to stay away as long as the height is somewhat close (5'10'' or below, I'd say) - but a good fighter at that size destroys me easily, of course.

but it is not a question of who would win the fight, but who is stronger. I don't personally know any woman as strong as me in real life, but I've seen them on tv - and those altoid strong women were considerably stronger.

 

I think she's stronger as well, she's very athletic. Probably not in benching though, as she's very tall.

 

I'm just saying that sometimes a little guy can still be stronger than a hulking brute of a woman. and sometimes weights are deceiving, as in my case.

I took a picture with Brian Viloria in which he weighed 120 lbs walking around (I asked him) and I weighed 128 lbs, and I looked monstrous next to him.

Bench press and curls - the ultimate benchmark in strength :roll:

 

Ah yes... my day is complete as well.

 

military did a study years ago. took females in boot camp that were at the top of their clases, physically. put the in a study that required that they work out and take supplementation to increase strenth and endurance. they reached the bottom of the male counterparts in other unsupplemented regimented classes. basically, it is like my father told me. never **** or get involved with a woman you are not certain you can knock down with the first punch. Nature knows what is best, ok.
