    Yes. The Earth is attracted to you with identical force. Your weight on Earth is equal to the Earth's weight on you.

    In this context it would be - You are pushing back on the ground with same amount of force. Its like pushing against a wall, if you are tired, you will find that it will be harder to push against this force.

    So True, just changed the wording.
