What muscles do I need to work out to carry someone?

Okay, I know that's a weird question "What muscles do I need to work out to carry someone?". I'd like to one-day, if I ever found the right person, to carry them down the aisle. I'd light work out so it would be easy. What muscles do I need to work out and what exercises would help? Please and thank you.

What are your Experiences with indoor exercise bikes?

I (22M) want to do something for my cardiovascular health and stamina.

Right now i could get a really good deal for an indoor exercise bike so I'm thinking that i probably wanna go for it.

I wanted to ask about your experiences with them before i do it tho.

Exercising on very little sleep

I only sleep 4 hours a night. Would exercise help or hurt ? Anyone have experience w this? Not talking about one time…consistently doing it.

Effects of doing gym at irregular time.

I work in technical support with rotational shifts, so my schedule is all over the place. I try to exercise daily but usually manage 3-4 times a week, meaning some days I hit the gym in the morning and other days in the evening. I have notices my energy level is very low sometimes, sometimes my body is completely sore. For those with unpredictable schedules, do you find it necessary to go at the exact same time daily, and does the same timing apply to your protein supplements?

Does the amount of sweat produced while exercising affect overall performance?

As part of health improvement since having diagnosed with diabetes, I'm trying to do walks with the treadmill as a stepping stone for exercising. But when I do so I heat up pretty quickly and sweat a lot so I try to use a fan to cool myself off while doing the exercise. I notice I definitely last a bit longer on the treadmill with the fan but I'm wondering whether that would affect the exercise in any way.

Rest Periods between work outs.

I started exercising and lifting in November, lost muscle and recovering from a broken shoulder some years ago. I took it easy the first few months but have been pressing much harder now.

After a workout on say Monday, if you feel the muscle is still a bit tender, when should you resume the same area again?

For instance, my triceps, they’re not sore per say, but I can ‘feel’ them a little. Not real pain or tight but feels like they are still healing. Is it okay to resume when feeling like this or should I wait longer?

It’s hard to explain but I can basically feel that they are ‘there’ no real discomfort but can feel I worked them recently. I’ve increased my protein intake but not doing or on anything else.
