      Lol, right. Do you have to be strong to lift something light? Do you have to be strong to lift something heavy? Common sense here buddy, if you have to be strong to lift something, lifting that makes you stronger.

      By your logic of light weights making you strong, lifting a piece of paper would make you strong, whereas lifting furniture in and out of a moving truck all day wouldn't. Give us all a ****ing break and grow a brain before you post again!

        Whatever weight and rep range you do you will not gain any significant muscle mass if you do not have calorie excess - ie eat more than you burn. So what you originally said high weights low rep as you are doing just puts on muscle mass is only true if you eat to gain muscle and get lots of rest and recovery.

        You don't specify your rep range but in general 1-5 reps heavy weight for strength, 5-10 for muscle gain and strength, higher reps for endurance.

        The reason to do heavy weights low reps is to develop explosive strength. It has been proven to increase athletic performance. It won´t necessarily cause hypertrophy or muscle weight gain, like I said depends on frequency, nutrition and recovery. If a boxer is maintaining high cardio and not eating to gain weight he won't bulk.

        Just doing general boxing workouts will develop muscular endurance by itself - heavy bag work, shadow boxing with very light weights, pushups etc.

        I don't know how you can say you wont get as strong as you would with low weights... for powerlifters to get strong they lift heavier and heavier weights, you see lightweight skinny guys that can lift incredible weight, why dont they get huge muscle mass and how do they manage to stay within their weight division? - eating habits and high frequency training!

        The links you posted all refer to bodybuilding, and don't prove your point at all.
        Anyway no need for anyone to throw around insults here, there is more than one way to skin a cat.
