Crashing on takeoff... how odd

Not sure of the exact amount but that is a certification requirement. My
182 got pretty sporting if you had to do a go around. Since I mostly
flew alone it was a nose heavy airplane and I always landed with full
nose up trim. Not sure how to characterize how much force was required.
Let's say significant.

I don't know the exact force either, but I could easily hold down the
nose of my 182 with full nose-up trim and full throttle. I'd guess
30-40 lbs of force, but that is just a guess. I can bench press
probably 160 lbs (I haven't lifted in 20 years so I'm getting wimpy),
which is 80 lbs per arm. I'm sure I wasn't using even half of my arm
strength to hold the nose at climb attitude hence my guess of it being
no more than 40 lbs and likely less than that.
