I agree with you there. I primarily use weights to 'even things out' if I sense an imbalance problem coming. It definitely helped with my running, and now I get no knee pain at all [like magic]. But I still don't support just going to the weight room to get 'big' [unless you're a sprinter/trackie, etc.]
