This is the kind of gritty reality I'd like to see in a movie. Stuff is constantly breaking when the hero tries to pick it up, he has to go through a montage of classes on structure and how to choose the best place to grab onto things.

Also leverage. Unless the super strength comes with stability, lifing a boulder from the edge would just make the hero's feet slip out from under them. He has to lift one side straight up until he can fit underneath to balance the thing. Then he has to hope that the ground below can withstand all the weight of the boulder pressing on the soles of his feet.

Also super strong guy has to grow morbidly obese in order to gain a slight mechanical advantage over whatever he's trying to move

I'd just depict it as super strong guy ripping panels off of vehicles or tearing wheels and shit off.
