Start lifting weights.
In a couple years.....
Or put a piece of pipe over the wrench to increase leverage.
How you position yourself in relation to the crank arm AND wrench orientation.
Try to have the force going straight down with the arms at 3 & 9 o'clock.
Hold the other crank arm with your other hand, pushing down.
