Takes mass to move mass, therefore I find it more useful (for comparison) to talk in terms of % of bodyweight.

Lifting 100kg when you are 200kg isn't quite the achievement that it is if you weigh 50kg.

That's more maffs than I can deal with for a gym spreadsheet - does it mean that in my diminuitive stature i'm shifting "more" that some monster that weighs twice what I do lifting 2x?
