[QUOTE="nickdnz, post: 470012, member: 38640"] I used to lift by the shorts as a kid. It felt easier when lifting someone much heavier. Now of course I do it correctly (which you shouldn't end up with a brown thumb...eww). Basically lifting under the two cheeks as pointed out above. I'm always lumped with people who don't know how to lift, so I pretty much end up doing it by myself anyway. Nothing better than lifting with another prop who knows how to lift and a jumper who knows how to jump. You can get lightening quick lifts going. Back in 1st XV who was probably around 5'9'', 75kg max (not a regular prop, usually a reserve hooker) and yet me and the other prop would literally be able to launch him in the air higher than 6'3''-6'4'' jumpers, much quicker.
