If you have two guys with the same lifts, but one guy is lighter, he is relatively stronger. But why is this impressive?

Because the lighter guy was able to cut and keep his strength?

the size of your frame (bones) greatly contributes to your strength

density, perimeter. especailly the joints

Imo i don't think its nearly that impressive, maybe if the weight difference is extreme, you have someone like hafthor bjornsson who's 400lbs average per year deadlifting upper 900s and i think tipped 1005 recently but pete rubish who did 920 and he's 150-200lbs lighter.

You have to go back

Lighter lifters have smaller frames generally, so it's harder for them to pack on strength than a larger lifter.

Is there any scenario in which a lifter with a smaller frame and less muscle would be able to outlift someone with a bigger frame and more muscle?

strength to weight ratio
>>
>>41235664
Happens all the time. Technique and the central nervous system have a large impact on this. As a person trains a lift they become more efficient at it and can recruit more muscle fibre.

An elite weightlifter can use say ~80% of the total muscle fibres in a muscle while a movie will use say ~30% . (im not sure what the numbers are its just an example.)

>>41235579
Less muscle mass to lift same amount of weight. It's a lot more interesting in power sports like weightlifting though because it introduces the factor of speed (at least on the elite level).

it takes two hands to press the buttons for a screenshot but only holding down one finger to save and image

your story doesn't add up "anon"
