If I put a new born calf on my shoulders and squat him every 10 hours, will there ever be a point when he gets too heavy to lift?

Can you squat a full grown bull? Can anyone? No! So no.

Yup. Don't be retarded.

True, but if you think about it, as the calf gets bigger, he will get stronger.

It is like SS but with a calf instead of a barbell

If you poke a hole in a styrofoam cup it's a cup with a hole in it. If you poke another hole in it it becomes a cup with two holes in it. If you keep poking holes in it when does it cease being a cup with holes in it and instead become another thing entirely?

Everyone stalls on lifting. Gains come slower when you start getting really heavy. The calf grows at a constant rate. Eventually the lines cross and either you fail to lift the calf or you injure yourself and then fail.

Maybe a natty bronze age bull I think would definitely be possible to squat.

This is why people don't take philosophy seriously. Shit like this isnt paradoxical at all. It's literally an exercise in semantics.

Interesting point. How big was a bronze age bull or cow?

Only thing I could find that was remotely helpful was that a modern breed of cattle from Greece was a particularly small breed referred to as Native Cattle that's pretty old.

It weighs about 450-600lbs in present times, so I imagine a malnourished bronze age cow would be easier to lift.
