How much can the 95th Percentile lift without overly exerting themselves?
In terms of product design how large a weight could people in the 95th Percentile (Men & Women) lift in KG, per hand, without overly exerting themselves? This is in regards to anthropometrics, and the data would be used with 95th percentile hand sizes, etc.
As for defining overly exerting themselves, I'd say in terms of being able to hold an object for a prolonged period of time, without showing any noticeable signs in terms of biology that they were doing this, e.g. Sweating, Feeling Uncomfortable. For example, a phone is below this lift, a normal television is above.

Through what i see from those gym i normally go, 20-30 kg dumbell are most commonly use by those weight lifter who want to have nice body. Those intense body builder will be pushing much more heavier example i once saw a guy pushng 50kg dumbell for his dumbell press.
that is for dumbell press as i do not what type of exercise u are looking for.
I like this question. If you're trying to create metrics for this, you should look up records - records of feats that measure the parameters you're looking for. For example if you found the record for bench press, you could consultant a physicist to see how much force,power, etc is required to complete the lift, and then figure out where you want your 95% percentile to be if that record is the 100% level.
Here are the records fr wieght lifting en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_world_records_in_Olympic_weightlifting
As for this 95% cuttoff. Maybe you shoudl base it on the worlds population. As in, it's the amount that no LESS than 5% of the worlds population could lift without the fatigue aspects you mentioned before.
