what is funny is that athletes found out they needed both by hit and miss. There are athletic events that do not need strength and most top rated marathon runners cannot bench press their own weight while Heavyweight Olympic weight lifters can often not run a mile in under 15 minutes. The lower weight classes almost all run, as they have to make weight every meet, just like boxers and wrestlers.
