Lifting Time

Ok so I don’t really like make site-wide changing thread like this but I think this problem is kinda huge so.. here we go

Let’s make this short. Lifting a heavy object for a long period of time is way way more difficult than a short period. Let’s say some character can lift a 400kg object, just below the maximum threshold for Peak Human strength. Let’s say he can lift this object for 1 hour. This would just scale him way higher than any peak human. But a lot of pages place characters like this into like Peak Human to Superhuman. Ok I don’t wanna disrespect any Athletes but let’s face it all of those heavy lifters only lift an object for what, a few seconds? Just take that video for the 545kg feat for example. That heavy lifter only lift the object for like, 5 seconds. Few fictional would have a feat where a character lift an object near a time of a few seconds. Applying this to a lot of characters just feels like not getting them to the tier where they should have gotten to
 
Wrong forum. Should go on either staff discussion or calc group discussion, though you need permission to post a staff discussion thread
