Are there any weight machines that mimic lifting a stretcher?
I weigh 140 lbs, and most of the people in our service area weigh about 250 lbs. I always feel a little bit of pain in my shoulders when lifting and I don't want a major injury. So, I figure it's best if I start working the major muscle groups involved in lifting a backboard off the ground or a stretcher.
Also, I can't seem to make my biceps sore when lifting. I know soreness the next day is good. Do you have any recommendations. I do 8 reps of 35 lbs. 3 sets. I am struggling during the last 2 sets.
