This is Samantha from My 600 Pound Life.
She's 6'2" and 800 lbs.
Just look at her walk:
An athletic, muscled woman at her height would be about 170 pounds maybe. That means she's carrying 630 extra pounds of adipose tissue around.
I'm not a physical therapist or anything, but I surmise that going from a seated position to a standing position is similar to the squat, in which most of the load is placed on the leg muscles and knees.
This absolute beast is a female powerlifter, setting the world record for the squat. As you can see, this number isn't even above the amount of fat tissue on our gorl Samantha.
So how do the hell do their bodies work? Are they stronger than this powerlifter? Or is there something physics wise I'm not seeing here? Under all that fat are they just slabs of muscle?
