This friend of mine is from military. They say body builders are not that strong. he told me he seen his member(which is small, and not muscular with spare tyre) could carry weight more than bodybuilders. Running 20km with weights of 10kg(the intercom, water bottle, etc acceesories, boots), bla bla.. comando stories.
With his commando stories(you guys must know right? long story), they are doing the painful, tough activities that I think most human cannot do.
It is said that our military is more tough than UK's army. ST, herst.
Bodybuilders, not strong? Wakakakaz! Your friend needs to get his definition of "STRONG" checked. Your friend, 20KM, 10KG, isn't much of strength. With his commando stories(you guys must know right? long story), they are doing the painful, tough activities that I think most human cannot do.

It's endurance. It's something you build up, with constant training.
Strength, is more like holding on to something blooming heavy, and being able to control your muscles to the desired motion. Not letting the weight control you
Power, is the ability to explode all your strength and release it in a single movement or repeated with follow ups.
Tat's what my previous tkd master taught me. In martial arts, you want all three.
Anyway, from my personal experience, when I hit 70KG's from my previous 63KG's, I can feel myself kicking harder and faster. Yes, faster. My techniques improved and my stability, better. So yes mister, weightlifting does help.
Frankly, get your friend to arm wrestle a weightlifter, or spar with a weightlifter/martial artist. Or do trialathon against a weightlifter. They're strong aight, trust me there.
