> Bodyweight exercises aren't nearly stressful enough to build strength in the lower body.
exaggerated disfunctional super strength is not the only goal in fitness. That guy has good legs, and likely much better endurance than those who are focused on weighted squats.
Disfunctional super strength doesn't happen by accident, it's typically the result of many years of hard training and drug use. Most people who lift weights regularly will never develop super strength, they'll simply develop "normal" strength and have a better life. There are reasons to believe that focusing on conditioning isn't a good idea.
I think hundreds bodyweight squats and lunges, which that guy promotes, is closer to "normal" strength, endurance, mobility and better life. Those who do heavy-weighted squats are more moving towards goal of lifting compact car once in a while.
Lifting light weights for high reps does nothing for strength. In fact, it's detrimental to strength, unless you also do strength training, which consists mainly in low reps at high intensity.
