[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It may not be density, but muscle tone. Low tone kids feel heavier because they are not using their own muscles to help you or to balance their own weight in the lift. My DS and his best buddy were same height and weight, but he has low tone and she's a gymnast in the making. The difference in lifting them is stunning. He is dead weight, while you could hold her without using your arms since she clings like she's shinnying up a pole.[/quote] OP, and my kid is actually pretty muscular and strong. She can do probably 5-6 chin-ups, backbend kickovers, multiples of that move where you hold onto a bar and raise straight legs to touch bar, etc. She's heavier than most of her teammates. [/quote]
