How to lift a girl

Lifting your girlfriend is a fun and charming gesture. Be sure to ask for her consent before lifting her to ensure she’s comfortable. Simply lift her up, much like you would carry a bride. You can also lift her like a firefighter carries someone over their shoulder. However, if you haven’t received proper training, avoid lifting someone in emergency situations.

Wrap your arms around her. To begin, wrap your arm around the girl’s waist, and place your other hand at her knee. Ask her to place her hands on your shoulders to make the process of lifting her easier.

Lift with your legs. When lifting something weighing a few kilograms, it’s best to use your legs instead of your back. This prevents potential strain on your lower back muscles. Squat down and wrap your arms around her. Then, step forward and lift using your legs, not your back.

• You can improve your balance by spreading your legs slightly before lifting to provide a larger base of support.
• If you feel unsteady, gently lower her and start over to ensure safety.

Keep her close to your body when lifting her. When lifting a heavy object, it’s important to keep it close to your body. The same principle applies when lifting a person. The closer she is to you, the more intimate and romantic the lift will feel.

• Pull her in closer. Allow her to nestle against you by holding her tightly in your arms.
• You can gently tighten your grip on her legs and back, bringing her body closer to yours.

Keep your back, shoulders, and neck straight. When lifting, maintain a straight back, shoulders, and neck. Try to puff your chest out while keeping your back straight as you lift her. While you might slightly lean as you carry her, aim to stay as upright as possible. Imagine a straight line running from your ankles to the top of your head.

Ask her to hold onto you for extra support. Never release your hold while lifting someone. Doing so may cause injury. For added safety, have her hold onto you. She can gently wrap her arms around your shoulders to assist with the lift.

Put her down if you start to feel tired. Most people weigh over 45 kg, so lifting someone can be quite strenuous. Only lift her when you’re truly comfortable. When you start to feel muscle strain, carefully lower her down.

• Squat down and lower your body using your legs, not your back.
• Lower the hand holding her legs so she can safely place her feet on the ground.
• If she stumbles while being set down, help her steady herself as she stands up.

Instruct her to rise. Typically, the firefighter lift is employed to carry an injured person to safety. However, without proper training, intervening in someone's injury can be dangerous. This technique is best reserved for lighthearted moments. To begin, position her directly in front of you so that both of you face each other.

Prepare to lift by positioning yourself correctly. Begin the firefighter lift by shifting your weight to your right leg. Position your right foot between her feet. Then, instruct her to place her right hand over your right shoulder. Position your head beneath her armpit and loop your arm around her right knee.

Squat and let her lean into your shoulder. Once in the correct stance, squat down. Guide her to lean toward your right shoulder, shifting her weight onto your right side. Grasp her right hand with your right hand, gently pulling her body across your neck.

Lift her carefully. At this stage, you are ready to stand. Her torso will now rest against your neck, with her legs on your right side. Hold both her right leg and arm with your right hand. Her head will rest on your left shoulder.

• Again, remember to lift using your legs, not your back.
• Depending on how the weight is distributed, you might be able to carry her for a while in this firefighter hold. However, she might feel awkward or uncomfortable. If she does, she may request to be put down if the position feels unpleasant.

Move slowly to avoid muscle strain or injury. If you're not a professional weightlifter, you should take your time when lifting someone. Lifting with your legs can reduce the risk of back muscle strain, but it can't completely eliminate it. Move slowly when lifting. Pay attention to your body. If you feel muscle tension, it's best to stop.

Avoid lifting someone in an emergency situation unless you're properly trained. The firefighter lift technique is primarily used to carry injured victims during emergencies and accidents. You should refrain from using it unless you've had specialized training. You could unintentionally worsen someone else's injury. Only use this method in lighthearted situations.

Ensure you have the person's consent before lifting them. Not everyone likes being lifted. Even if you've been dating her for a while, she may not find it fun or romantic to be picked up. Always ask her permission first, especially if you’ve never lifted her before. Pay attention to her body language as well. If she crosses her arms or steps back, it's a sign you're invading her personal space.

Be cautious when lifting someone in public. For various reasons, a girl may not be comfortable being lifted in public. Some people dislike displaying affection openly. Also, if she's wearing a short skirt, be careful not to reveal her underwear when picking her up. A girl in a short skirt may try to hold onto her skirt when being lifted. Before lifting her in public, always ask if she's okay with it.
