This would seem to be the most 'conventional' explanation.. are the
lifters' heart rates/breathing faster when they are able to lift the
subject then when they are not?

Have you tried placing your hands close to and moving them away until you
get the effect? (or the other way around, i'm not sure where the position
is) If the distance required for people of different weights varies
*consistently*, that would show correllation between weight and hand
distance. If it varies randomly, there's something else entirely at work,
and if it's constant, then i would expect it to correllate somehow with
some other bodily field's radius..
