The ever increasing separation of Olympic lifters, powerlifters, and bodybuilders has contributed to the fiction that light weights build muscle. There was a time when the magazines covered all three endeavors, when the lifting meets and the bodybuilding contests were held together, when lifting champions appeared as special guests to do exhibitions at bodybuilding shows and bodybuilding champs gave exhibitions at lifting competitions. Back then men were both extremely well built AND extremely strong. All of this kept the bodybuilding crowd focused on heavy training. Once the magazines began to cover bodybuilding almost exclusively, the bodybuilders quickly forgot about the importance of heavy training.
