Jul 14, 2012 at 23:28 comment added Dave Liepmann @Aesir Lifting weights can be done for conditioning, depending on how you structure the lifts. The methods I know of are barbell complexes (where you load the bar with a light weight and do reps of several different exercises without stopping, e.g. 8 cleans, 8 squats, 8 presses, then rest and repeat) and the infamous 20-rep squat program. But no, lifting weights for strength (like in SS or SL) will not get your conditioning much past a minimal level.
Jul 14, 2012 at 8:36 comment added Aesir Thanks for taking the time to answer I am looking over the information you provided and checking out Starting Strength and StrongLifts. Will just lifting weights have a significant impact on my conditioning level?
