Mr. Rippeto is hung up on power lifting as the end all, be all of fitness. If all you want to be is a very strong couch potato then weight lifting is the answer. A combination of aerobic exercise and strength training is better than one or the other alone. I would challenge him to play a round of golf at my club carrying a mere 25lb bag for the 4 mile walk. My guess is if he is really only lifting he would have a very difficult time finishing.
The weakness and stupidity required to think that carrying 25lbs around is difficult is quite spectacular.
