Hi All,

I'm looking for literature that discusses weight lifting and carrying capabilities of various humans based on sex, age, and obesity. All three variables together or individually would be useful to me.

For example, what are the weight lifting and carrying capabilities of a 60 year old obese female vs. a 25 year old obese male assuming they are otherwise healthy?

thanks!
