So what you are saying is, I have to eat more, get fatter, widen my area and therefore reduce the stress?
Got it.

That will just increase the force (gravity).
You need to lie down. That increases area but not force.
This is amazing and really deserves more updoots

Welcome to engineering, where we have MPa as a unit of stress and mm/mm as a unit of strain!

mm/mm?? why not call it m/m?

I was told that you also sometimes have four basis vectors in 3D

Agreed. Perhaps it was based on tensile stress? Tensile stress = deforming force / cross-sectional area

Yes. Stress is a measure of an object’s internal pressure.
