The amount of weight you can carry depends on the amount of muscular mass that you have, the amount of energy you are able to burn per second and the condition and size of your skeletal system.

Generally most people can carry a load just over 50% of their own weight comfortably without any serious or special physical training. Up to 100% and beyond of own weight warrants proper training and conditioning
