The problem: I am a custodian for a school, since coved started I have to pick up every chair, carry it to a location, and stack it. To save time, I carry 1 chair in each hand, so I do 2 at a time. Normally I do about 150 chairs, today my helper is not here, so I will be doing ALL the chairs; about 300! I have been doing it since coved started over 1 year ago. By Friday my arms are very tired.....
The question: After over a year of lifting and carrying 150 - 300 chairs, you would think it would be a lot easier by now. So why by Friday is my arms still just as wore-out and tired as they were a year ago? Any suggestions on what I can do to fix the problem.
Thank you!

Umm, when you work out, do a bunch of farmer's walks with heavier weight than the chairs? Specificity, progressive overload... all that fun stuff.
Why NOT?
