It's interesting that the sanctity of sprinters and weight training has really never been questioned. Whilst the debate abouts the effects and benefits for enduros has been done to death it is just assumed that it is essential for sprinters. Whilst there are a few examples of very good fast twitch types not touching weights as far as I know there hasn't been much study done in this regard.
Maybe it has something to do with telling someone who lifts twice their bodyweight that they may be wasting their time
I would very keen to see data, study or anecdote in this regards.
