This is amateur advice. You can't lift with your knees for a bulky and squishy item like a body if it's in front of you. If you attempt this, you'll notice that your knees get in the way and you need to reach out a lot and can't lift as a result. Body isn't like gym weights on a perfectly nice to grab steel bar.

If you don't actually have to lift at all, just drag it. And if you do, use a fireman's carry which is designed for carrying unconscious hoomans.

The middle ages are long past, people won't look at you weirdly if you wash yourself more than once a year. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Or involve two people but, depending on your circumstances, this might introduce other complications.

Don’t put pressure on your knees, that’s unhealthy, put it on your upper leg muscles

Always lift with a fast, twisting motion to get all those back muscles to engage.
