5 ft and under GWM?

Jul 08, 2023 - permalink

My gf just started lifting and is under 5 ft. Was wondering if there were any girls she could look up to (no pun intended) on this site?

Maria Liberman is 4’8” I think. So she could be a good model of what could be if your girlfriend puts in the time and gear use.

Not that I would advise for your girlfriend to aspire to such improbable models.

It’s also possible that some of them crack 5 ft.

Sorry it this is a little off topic but are these women still stronger than tall but unathletic men?

Nope. Tall FBBs aren't that strong either if you're looking for strong women look into stuff like BJJ, power lifters or arm wrestlers it's all in the training.

Not even close. This is me 5 years ago with the current WPD Olympia. I'm only 5-10, and this was before I really got serious into lifting.

Marianna Gasparyan was a powerlifter. At 123 lbs she squatted 573 lbs (over 4.6 x her bw) breaking the men’s 132 lb record. You can see her lifts listed here: https://www.openpowerlifting.org/u/mariannaga...

I have no idea what a "tall but unathletic" guy can lift, but I would think that anyone who actually qualifies as unathletic would be risking injury attempting those weights.

I don't know her exact height, but I'm pretty sure Nita Marquez is under 5'
