That was interesting.

I'm still bitter about losing an arm-wrestling match with a man who's about the same size as me and who doesn't work out AT ALL, has health problems, and generally looks like he'd blow away in a strong wind. I did crush him in a push-up contest, but the arm-wrestling thing still nags at me. Could it be because I have really short arms - not just in comparison to men, but in comparison to other women my height?

I've asked men to pull the 60lb trap bar up and out of the stand thingy at the gym, because it's hard for me to move given that I'm 5'4" and it's a super awkward reach. My arms ought to be on the body of someone 5' or shorter.
