Possible, sorry if I lumped you with what warpwoof said above:

> Doing full squats with your bodyweight on the barbell 15 times (3 sets of 5) is like screaming at your body to get in shape and it will respond.

I do not think (very-)high-resistance training is a good approach for people wanting to be "in shape" but, then, I make a distinction between that and bodybuilding.

To me, "in shape" means whatever conditioning I think I need for the activity I want to do. That kind of strength training makes sense considering the demands of my sport.
