Was curious so gave this a try with 20 lb, and it was tough, but not egregiously so.
Of course, I'm a climber during normal times, and my current routine has devolved to just hangboard training and gymnastic ring work.
And for reference, a 24-pack of 355 ml beer cans is 20 lb, if you're looking for appropriate household objects.
