Good thing I work out
I had one of those gee, I'm glad I lift weights moments last night. My husband and I got stuck in the snow and ice twice on the way home from Bible study last night. Since I can't drive stick, I had to push us 10 or 15 feet across an unplowed parking lot and then later all the way through an intersection. Granted, it was a small car. But there are some moments where you do something you didn't know you could do, and feel really strong! It was a great workout, too

Yes, it is great when you can positively apply your hardwork in the gym to "real world" situations. Bet you felt like the 6 million dollar man!!
Sucks though when your friends are moving and the first person they call is you........"Oh this sofa is very heavy, lets call up (insert your name here) to move it!" LOL

Actually, I believe the name of the show was "The Bionic Woman".

My point was that LiftGirl is female, and probably has never felt like a man, six million dollar type or otherwise.
I remember that piece of drek with Lindsay Wagner...............
Still, I'll bet LiftGirl feels like at least a million dollars after pushing that car.  :
