@whatgoeshere Oh!! I had this experience a few days ago. There was a situation where one of the patients in the common area was laying on the floor due to an unknown (at the time) medical cause and we had to move her quickly to her room. I had no idea I had the strength to lift this woman by myself and run all the way to her room. Her weight was about 125lbs and I would've never thought I would be able to carry an adult prior to this event. I am sure adrenaline helped but I totally think it was the zercher squat that helped and the hex deadlift I've been doing. I have a bad back so I have been doing zercher for a few months and I never thought I'd use this skill in a real life scenario. My coworkers were so impressed that day and said I looked like a firefighter rescuing a person from a house burning down lol. It has definitely motivated me to add a few more pounds to my zercher routine.
