agree  Philippe Etienne: Pourrait convenir dans le contexte (la tronçonneuse avant le ciseau à bois), mais pour moi "heavy lifting" n'est pas "plus difficile", plutôt plus ennuyeux, routinier, etc.

heavy lifting
activités rébarbatives, fastidieuses, pénibles


Explanation:
Travail qui demande peu de réflexion, raisonnement ou délicatesse. "undifferentiated", en quelque sorte.
Il ne s'agit pas de jouer de la harpe, mais de lever de la fonte.
